What to bring

If you are coming to the Biketour, what you might find useful (and we think it's essential):

... a bike - read more here: FAQ#Bikes
A bike helmet (not essential, but on some of the roads pretty useful for your safety)
A bike lock
bikelights, back and front (we try not to cycle in the dark, but if we do - car's will NOT expect you)
A puncture repair kit, spare tubes and bike pump (just in case)
A container to keep maps dry
Water container, it's gonna be hot so this one is important! (min. 1 liter)
A tent
Sleeping bag & mat
Cycling clothes for all types of weather (but take as little clothes possible) - light colored, synthetic clothes preferred to resist sun and sweat, bright/strong/relflective clothes handy to 'be noticed by motorized traffic)
Swimming stuff
Your mobile phone and charger
Organic (biodegradable/non-polluting) soap, shampoo and toothpaste
Sun cream, sunglasses, long sleeved shirts
Waterproof jacket
Medication you (might) need.
Plate, cup & cutlery
A flashlight, ideally a headlight
Valid ID like passport
Visa you might need
Money - in 2012, Biketour costs around € 5 per day, and you might want to buy stuff yourself.
Vegan and/or vegetarian recepies for one (or two) pot meals on the campfire, some herbs you like
