Today we took the bricks out of our panniers and packed everything we’re taking for our 2 – 3 month ride. It was our last training ride on the Trek 520s before the bikes get shipped to a bike shop in Oregon. Boy, was it hot out! We decided that we needed to unpack a few things to lighten the load. Our panniers fulled loaded weigh 50 lbs.
