Having actually done this last year, here's my 2 cents: Tent: A simple backpacking tent is plenty. Its compact, lightweight, and still big enough for you and plenty of your crap. Whatever specialty camping equipment exists will be way too expensive. Bring a sleeping pad. A simple inflatable one will do. Also compact. Single-person sleeping bag, obviously. Bungee cords are great for securing these to your bike, though you can always shove the sleeping bag into a saddle bag. Food: I picked some stuff up in town after setting up camp. I did have the advantage of a 46-liter Givi case though, which makes that super easy. If you want to skip that, MREs (you can buy them cheap on ebay) are great since they're compact and require no equipment besides a spork, bowl and water. Not the finest cuisine, mind you, but it'll get the job done. Trail mix works great as a snack. As far as where to, it depends on what you're into and where you've been. Joshua Tree is kind of interesting, the Salton Sea area is worth a look if you're into that whole "poverty tourism" thing. Its a bit early for the mountains, I'd say. redscare fucked around with this message at 23:06 on Jan 30, 2012 |
