Pack Light

Think of the last time you went on a trip and you were told to pack light. You were probably taking a short weekend trip or an overnight so you would soon be back to your normal routine with all the comforts of home.

We are planning to be gone for three months or more carrying all of our gear: clothes, cosmetics, shoes, sleeping bags, tent, ground pads, pillows, maps, electronics, cooking gear, utensils, tools, first aide, water and food, on our tandem bicycle.

So when I told Sarah that we need to pack light and it's got to fit in this bag, she was excited, not. She keeps reminding me that she is a woman. And I keep thinking, "Am I missing something?" She has the same size bag as me! But just so you know, I do get it yet that doesn't change our storage capacity.

Here is the clothing list we have agreed upon. Each of us will bring this with slight modifications. Let us know if you have some recommendations other than, "You are crazy!"
