Some transport services carry bikes for free. Not all travel insurance covers bikes. Some ask for bikes to be packaged in boxes; others just ask for the handlebars to be turned sideways and pedals removed. Check fine print.   kellyjones00 (593)

Waterproof stuff-sacks keep dry your sleeping bag, clothes, small electronics.   kellyjones00 (593)

A tent is not necessary in most touring conditions. Even in strong wind, rain, and heavy frost, a 4x2m fly in a sheltered position is sufficient for one.   kellyjones00 (593)

If touring alone, and one encounters rough weather, dress appropriately and keep well-fuelled. This goes a long way towards keeping one's spirits up. Don't forget extra covering for toes, fingers, ear-tips.   kellyjones00 (593)
