What a day. Had my first proper trial pack.

Medical kit I want to take |
And guess what... Not enough room!!! And way to heavy, my poor bike.

Final medical kit
A good indicator of things to come |
I knew it was going to happen, but I didn't think I would be so short off space. Spent most off the day going through everything, and removing anything that isn't on my high priority list. Tried a second trail pack this evening. Still not there, but a lot closer. Hopefully after a couple more trial packing runs I will get everything to fit.

Where is it going to fit?

Yesterdays job was to organise my tools and spares, and then find a hiding place for them on the bike. Felt like I was building a puzzle, with way too many pieces. Fun but frustrating. To top it all off I also managed to drop the nearly fully loaded bike. Weight wasn't balanced and I lost it as I took the bike off the stand. Smack. Snapped off one of my mirrors. Ouch!!! Back to mechanic tomorrow to have it fixed.

4 hrs later |
I think I am just about ready to go. Just have to wait for the GPS. Fingers crossed for some good news tomorrow.

Nearly everything that has to go
Clothes and food missing |
