Gear O'Clock

If you like a nice gear list (go on, admit it!) here is a list of what I started off with.  It looks like a lot, and it is, but surprisingly it does all fit on one bike.   It is around 36kg of kit (plus the weight of the bike, another 23kg or so).  Add 10kg of food, 15kg of water and the large tub of lard sitting on the saddle and you have something that is… good at going downhill.  Enjoy!
