==Planned Equipment List for 2010==
Here we keep a record of the '''collective equipment''' needed/thought/available for each Biketour.


Trailers - 2 or 3 - still trying to get 1 or 2 from Zagreb, plus Moritz' trailer, maybe buy another one?
If you want to know what you should bring generally see here -> [[What_to_bring|participant equipment recomendation]] or in the FAQs on www.ecotopiabiketour.net


Rocket stove - one large and one small - we need to build these - maybe a workshop in London or Yorkshire?
Things often get left behind and often get mixed up with (particularly kitchen) equipment of the projects. One important tip when acquiring communal equipment is to '''choose items that have an exceptional design'''. Experience shows that even the most useless things don't get lost for months if their look is easy to recognise, but even the most essential things get left behind when no one is sure if they are ours or belong to the project.


Gas stoves - only small ones which some participants bring with them?
==Permanent equipment==


Biketools? (but maybe rely on the tools brought by participants)
Equipment that does not get used up and that we keep over the years.


Medical kit (anyone know where this is?). If the budget leaves space for it, ONE general BIODEGRADABLE shampoo, toothpaste and dishwash and a big handsoap is recommended to buy (and in a lot of countries those biodegradable products are hard to find). One general high factor sun-cream can be good too.

Pots - There is only 1 big pot (22liters) left from last years biketour (in Zagreb?). Needed additionally is a thinner metal pot one size smaller, and a small pot (2 liters or so) could be handy too for coffee and sauces
==Equipment that gets used up==


A big plastic box that wouldnt break easily, can be usefull to cary food supplies like rise, coffee, teas, etc Smaller boxes are quickly recycled while traveling from the packaging of daily food, so not needed to buy
Equipment that gets used up, so it needs to be acquired before and during the tour.


Wooden cutting boards that we bought were too heavy, and finally left out of the supply- take 2 plastic ones instead

Latest revision as of 13:01, 30 March 2023

Here we keep a record of the collective equipment needed/thought/available for each Biketour.

If you want to know what you should bring generally see here -> participant equipment recomendation or in the FAQs on www.ecotopiabiketour.net

Things often get left behind and often get mixed up with (particularly kitchen) equipment of the projects. One important tip when acquiring communal equipment is to choose items that have an exceptional design. Experience shows that even the most useless things don't get lost for months if their look is easy to recognise, but even the most essential things get left behind when no one is sure if they are ours or belong to the project.

Permanent equipment

Equipment that does not get used up and that we keep over the years.
