Our Touring Gear

​We've been dreaming of traveling the world together for 3 years now, and at initially, we were thinking of traveling by foot, train, buses... and then one day, we thought why not travel by bicycle?!?  Not only do we love bicycling, but we could go longer distances, faster, and by cheaper means...just a little bit - or a lot - of leg work and that's it! 

​

So although, we were up to many things for these 3 years, traveling the world by bicycle seemed to us like so much fun. As we looked into the possibility, we got that first, that was called bicycle touring, and then second, lots of people are doing it!!! Plenty of data was available upon the tip of our fingers through the internet, and now, all we needed to do was to buy touring bicycles and gear to make it all possible!

​

Our plan is to 1st travel through Europe, from the Atlantic to the Black Sea, from May to October 2013 (approximately 4,000 Km) and then, take our bikes and our gear to Asia, and tour Bangladesh, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, Vietnam... Yes, we can do this!!  Wooo hooo!!​
