Okay so first of all let me be clear.... I am NO Lance Armstrong. Hans and I took this trip on mountain bikes which makes things slower (as opposed to a road bike) and on top of that I will pack VERY differently for my next biking adventure. Here is a picture of our stuff from the morning we left Everett...
Second piece of advice: Do your trip with less of a time constraint than Hans and I did ours. We felt crunched for time and then I got a LOT of flat tires... I'll talk more about that in another post. BUT I just thought those two things were worth mentioning more quickly.
