Bonjour à tous,

Pour des raisons personnelles, dans un peu plus de trois mois, je compte partir cinq mois (voir six mois) dans le but de faire le tour de votre beau pays suivant un itinéraire semblable à celui ci (mis à part que je pense continuer après st nazaire)

Je compte partir en solitaire avec une tente, un sac à dos, de la lecture, mon courage et un budget réduit à une centaine d'euros par mois pour pouvoir mener à bien ce projet...

Alors, mes questions sont les suivantes: Est ce que des cartes routières (et boussoles) sont suffisantes pour m'y retrouver ? (vu le tour que je fais, c'est 150 carte IGN, qu'il me faudrait, trop cher^^) Quel sac à dos prendre (en sachant que la taille n'a aucune conséquence pour moi) ? Quel tente choisir ? (vu que 95 % du temps, je camperai) Vu mon budget, comment le répartiriez vous ? Quels matériels prendriez vous ?

Enfin soit, toutes les questions classiques que tout randonneur amateur devrait se poser ;)

D'avance, je vous remercie pour vos réponses:)

Amicalement

Julien

New, seen on TV, you won't believe it. Click here.

During my recent trek, I found that my bike—and my luggage—were heavy. Until now, the weight of my gear hadn’t been an issue. Maybe I’m getting old, or maybe I just can’t handle the SNCF’s stairs anymore.

It hit me in Toulouse. A 3-minute stop turned into a 6-hour delay because of a fire that was hard to control between Toulouse and Montauban. Eventually, our train was canceled, and we were told to take another train that was also waiting for the same destination. It was my fourth train of the day. It was 9:30 PM, and I’d left at 9:30 AM that morning. Suddenly, exhaustion took over.

That’s when I met two bike-packers who, without hesitation, lifted their bikes with all their gear attached, carried them down the steps of the Corail train, and then down the stairs to the underground passage. They were young and fit (they smelled like warm sand), and I definitely wasn’t. It was in that scorching heat, struggling up and down all those stairs (Oh Toulouse, as Nougaro would say, may you be cursed for seven generations), that I decided to go on a diet.

It’s a diet anyone can do, it works, and it’s free. So I’m sharing it right away.

No need to exercise or restrict yourself. No, all you have to do is think and do some research. You need a chair, a table, a scale, a computer, and a spreadsheet. Make a list of everything you’ve brought and weigh it all. Set a goal based on the type of trek and your comfort level. Remove everything that doesn’t help you reach that goal.

My goal: - Trekking in France from May to September, in the plains or at most on a plateau like Mont Aubrac, where at 800 m altitude, it can drop to 10 °C at night even in the middle of summer.

- Sleeping in a tent on a good mattress in a sleeping bag (I’m not changing that). Someone suggested I could sleep under the stars on bubble wrap. No way, are you crazy?

- Not cooking. I buy lunch on the way in the morning and dinner on the way in the afternoon (I’m not changing that either). Someone suggested Ducasse delivers everywhere in France. Uh, have you been smoking lemon weed?

That’s how I lost 5 kg, going from 17.7 kg to 12.8 kg, including luggage but not food or water. But I also reduced the volume and quantity of my gear.

Here are the before photos:

And after:

of my bike.

You can see that a duffel bag is gone, as well as the extra bags behind the panniers. I don’t even use the mesh pockets at the bottom of each pannier anymore. You can also see I’m still carrying my 1 kg U-lock. I know, it’s unforgivable. I’m on the verge of being banned.

So I might do another trek in September to validate my choices.

For the rear panniers, I can save between 1 and 1.5 kg depending on the solution: Arkel Dry-lites (28 L pair, 0.540 kg) or Vaude Aqua Light (38 L pair, 1.080 kg).

I also need to cut down on the tools I bring. I should be able to shave off about 0.5 kg.

And the bike? I’m thinking about it. Someone suggested the folding Savadeck Z2, which only weighs 10 kg. Carbon? Oh, don’t spread the word—it’s even more taboo than aluminum in some circles, and I won’t even mention the belt drive.
