How I pack for a bikepacking + camping trip || A week on the road in France

Cycle touring, bikepacking, whatever – getting your packing right is half the battle because all those 'little extra bits' you throw in 'just in case' are going to make you weep quietly into your handlebars when you're slogging up a gravel hill 50km into your longest day. Here's what works for me after three years of cycle touring. Bear in mind that the surface you'll be riding on, the bike you're taking, your own preferences and your own needs and accommodation choices will effect what and how you pack. There is no one right way. (P.s in this video I say I use the Jetboil with an Aeropress - I'd totally forgotten that I don't take the Aeropress (although it is great for other travels) and I have the Jetboil french press add-on and just use it as a cafetière) Related videos you might find useful for cycle touring: How I find cycle touring campsites in France:    • How I find cycle-touring campsites in...   10 tips for first-time cycle tourers:    • 10 tips for first-time cycle tourers ...   How I plan cycle touring adventures:    • How I plan cycle-touring routes || pl...   Stuff I use for cycle touring: Panniers: www.cyclestore.co.uk/ortlieb_back_roller_classic_w… Jetboil Flash: amzn.to/3RwhXH1 Jetboil French Press: amzn.to/3z9Ubdr Topeak Top Tube Bag: amzn.to/3xl2wur Sea-to-Summit TR2 Alto: www.ellis-brigham.com/sea-to-summit-alto-tr2-tent-… //FIND ME AT: Website: kitiarapascoe.com/ Instagram: www.instagram.com/kitiarapascoe/ //BOOKS: In Bed with the Atlantic: amzn.to/33406kq A Bear in November: amzn.to/3f3Dx1P Little Book of Zen: bit.ly/3n2WWoa DISCLAIMER: The links included in this description are sometimes affiliate links.
