- Rocket Stove - usually we have two, light, ecological and mostly free, we will have a workshop and build them at the start of the tour in Sofia
- Biketools - we have some basic tools plus a few special ones (crank remover, cassette tool) that will be communal, you can add here what you will bring. Take a look if your bicycle needs a very special tool
- Medical Kit - please put here if you bring one, we don't know where the ones from last year went
