    What’s In My Bags?

    (UK)

    I was wondering if you ever wondered what’s in a round-the-world cyclist’s (being me) bike bags? What constitutes his home? His belongings? Well, wonder no more.

    1.305 days and 57.000 km in to my RTW expedition, I’ve made a sort of interactive Flickr photo album with detailed photos of the content of my 6 bike bags.

    All the photos (19) contain descriptive notes. When on the Flickr page, just click the individual photos (to see enlargement) and then put the cursor on the photos, and you’ll see square boxes popping up with additional text…

    Before you proceed, I warmly recommend you check out these photos in the Flickr album I’ve made. The photos contain small descriptive notes (that don’t show up in the photos below) in semi-hidden boxes on the individual photos.

    Just read the comment in the left-hand box and follow the description.

      Rigtig interessant gennemgang.

      Når du engang har fået kørt på de Marathon Dureme, så vil det være fedt hvis du skrev lidt om hvordan de er sammenlignet med XR og Supreme.

      Hvad er der egentlig blevet af dit køkken?

      Hej Anders…

      MRS-køkkenet sendte jeg med en ven hjem fra det nordlige Peru, da jeg vurderede, jeg godt kunne leve uden. Jeg har ikke savnet det siden – borset fra den lejlighedsvise morgenkaffe i ødemarken.

      Dureme er glimrende indtil videre. Lav rullemodstand, væsentligt lettere (se Schwalbes website for info) og den velkendte (nær-)punkterløshed.

      Brian – probably not. I might just keep all that worn eqp to myself.
