 Must have "basic things"
I am planning a long ride, about 1300 miles round trip. I hope to go later this summer. I have got my own list of "things" I will need, but I thought I would ask some more experienced travelers there opinion about what basic items they feel are essential for a long trip. I have the route planned, heck I almost have it memorized. I have a list of my bike dealerships along the way in case the need for repairs comes up.
I figure a decent rain suit is a must. Daytime and night time glasses, snack foods and bottled warter. A quart of oil in case, and some spare bulbs for the turn signals. So what are some of your suggestions. Oh let me add, this trip will be made in 4 days. I plan to ride to my destination in one long day. Maybe I'm overly optomistic, but I'm tough and time is a cosideration. The distance is 620 miles. I figure about 12-14 hours. I also plan on having a gel cushion for my tushy. There you have it. My ride is to Shanksville, PA the crash site memorial of United 93. Leaving on Thursday and arriving back home in northwest Georgia on Sunday evening. Let me also say if you see a similar post in another theread I plan on posting a couple to get maximum views and suggestions. Thanks for any input and ride safe.
