What gear do I need for a bike trip?

You'll need a good bike, helmet, repair kit, water bottles, and appropriate clothing. Do you have a specific trip in mind?

I'm planning a week-long trip through the mountains.

For a week-long mountain trip, consider adding a tent, sleeping bag, cooking gear, and extra layers for warmth.

What about food and snacks?

Pack lightweight, high-energy snacks like nuts, energy bars, and dried fruits. For meals, consider dehydrated meals or easy-to-cook options.

Any tips for packing everything?

Use a pannier system to distribute weight evenly, and pack heavier items low and close to the bike's center of gravity.
