Thanks for the welcome Manuel
When the bike is loaded seating is a squeeze
The venturi bag on the back tackles all of my clothes and wash kit, the Tankbag has phone, ipod, docs and wet weather gear and the Ortleib bag behind me has all the camping gear (I use a self inflating mattress, really comfortable)........but it acts as a great backrest too.
Have done trips to France, Italy, Switzerland..........Not ridden to Spain yet, me and a couple of mates fancy doing the Pyrenees next year, ride down through france, then down the french side to the med then return to Santander and take the ferry back to the UK.
Any tips gratefully received.
