Cycling on my mind III
On previous four- and five-day bike tours I used two rear panniers for my gear. For my upcoming Switzerland to Sweden tour I will need more space for my tent, thermorest, sleeping bag, and cooking gear. A friend suggested a touring trailer and I think I’m sold on the idea. This setup would remove the weight from the bike and put everything in one central and waterproof location. I love it!
The local outdoor shop sells the Bob Yak (as depicted) for CHF 495.-. It’s expensive, but not much more than what I’d pay in Canada. I’ll likely get a different coloured bag and replace the “Bob” flag with a Canada flag.
