A bicycle trip is a little differerent than other camping trips. We'll be hauling the troop trailer, so all the camping and cooking gear will already be there when you get to the campsite. Also, you can put most or all of your personal gear in the trailer as well. You are welcome to carry some things on your bike if you have the ability to do so and if you're strong enough.
