Equipment
The right bike for this tour is a mountain bike. Road bikes are not recommended.Breakdowns can happen - but rarely at the door of a service station: a basic equipment of tools and accessories therefore never hurts! Spare tube and/or repair kit, universal wrench, air pump, brake and shift cable and a screwdriver can never hurt.
Suitable footwear, clothing in the "onion principle" and a backpack belong to the basic equipment.
Take enough to drink and eat with you - not everywhere there are refreshment stops.
