up for a whole stack of ziplocks! So far I have packed 24 bags and have not got to the during and post bags!! What I am then going to try and do then is to get 7 bigger zip-lock bags and pack one for each day with everything I will need for that day (kit, drinks, supplements and snacks. So all I will have to do is reach for the day 2 bag on the evening of day one. And then all of the rubbish from Day 1 will go into the old bag that I take the stuff for Day 2 out of! Makes sense...

TOUR DIVIDE
The Tour Divide is an annual mountain biking race traversing the length of the Rocky Mountains, from Canada to the Mexican border. Following the 2,745-mile (4,418 km) Great Divide Mountain Bike Route, it is an extreme test of endurance, self-reliance and mental toughness. The race format is strictly self-supported, and it is not a stage race - the clock runs continuously from the start until riders cross the finish line.

This truly is a daunting task which is then made worse by the fact that they give you a tog bag at registration into which you must re-pack everything as it is the ONLY bag they will transport during the race.
ReplyDeleteThe more I contemplate the packing the more I seem to procrastinate.
My wife just bought me a t-shirt - 'Just do It.....Later!"
ReplyDeleteIndeed the task it daunting! This weekend is the big pack! And re-pack and repack - you get the picture!
