8th entry Day #1
We loaded all my gear into the truck which includes all the following:
Bike - Giant Rincon [probably the finest bike ever built]
Bike panniers to carry my clothing
Bike trailer to carry the remaining gear which includes.
Camping gear
Cooking gear
3 days food supplies
Spare tires, tubes, cables and tools.
Toiletries
Lights, first aid kit, survival tools.
Electronics and 5 books [ not sure what I was thinking there].
We also brought with us the 2 Dogs.
Here is a picture of my gear, as you can see I am not too organized.
We went to Milford CT which was the bike trip stopping point the previous year. Upon arrival I heard that the following days weather called for 100% chance of showers and 20-30 MPH winds so decided to complete some of the next days leg that afternoon. It was a great ride without my gear I covered 15 miles in about 1 hour and Marti picked me up with the truck in Fairfield CT. I was glad to have some of the following days 50 plus mile leg completed.
