Revision as of 19:53, 21 April 2018
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.

Equipment that gets used up
Equipment that gets used up, so it needs to be acquired before and during the tour.

| Medical Kit | One old (incomplete) and one newer (slightly used) in Bcn | Red Cross? Pharmacy? |
| Washing-up liquid | have one half-used | |
| Replacement tubes for trailers (16-inch and 20-inch) | ||
| Sponges | ||
| Plastic bags | ||
| Matches, lighters | have one jet lighter + one normal lighter | |
| A4 sheets of paper | ||
| Big sheets of paper (for rota and workshops) | ||
| Markers | have some | |
| Pens (rate of loss about 1 per day…) | have some | |
| Puncture repair kit (with a looot of patches, maybe 10–20 per month?) | some patches, but we need more glue | The cheapest is to get a big tube of vulcanizer and to get several big packs of patches (that don't contain anything else). Those are difficult to find though. In some countries they have them in the home-improvement stores. |
| Rim tape | have one half-used | |
