Luggage Notes

Pack Light — The Truck Handles the Rest

Our support truck carries your main bag between hotels every day, so you're only carrying what fits on the bike during riding hours: rain gear, water, snacks, and camera equipment. A soft duffel packs into the truck far better than a hard-sided suitcase — leave the roller bag at home.

For routes with saddlebags or top cases already fitted, ask your guide what's realistic to carry on-bike versus what should go in the truck bag. We're happy to talk through it before you pack.
