There will be a more in-depth review (an pictures) soon. I purchased some panniers and a front handlebar rack to help me carry all my gear for RAGBRAI L. I will be getting this equipment added to the bike soon and post some initial reviews with pictures. Once nice weather hits my area….I will be on my bike outside loaded up with all my gear to get accustomed to the added weight and will be training all spring/summer for RAGBRAI L.
Just a little sneak peak. I got the Salsa EXP Series Anything Cradle, this will be holding my tent. For the panniers I got the Ortlieb Gravel Pack Pannier – 25L (2x bags). Each bag is 12.5L in size.
Hopefully the plan is to get the rear rack setup on the bike this week with the panniers as well as getting that front rack mounted.
I think with this I have the majority of my equipment that I will need for RAGBRAI L. Going to be a awesome adventure.
