Nice work.
Just got back from a short (long-weekend) ride. Took some of the same gear you spoke about. totally agree with taking candles... (but be careful in the tent, obviously)
If you have 5 mins... check out the short vid of my tour in Japan.
cheers!

@camfromgm i rerouted my trip and now its just under 65 miles, i was planning on doing it all in one trip just taking maybe a 10 minute break every hour or two and stopping for lunch i did 40 miles today took me about 3.5 hours with a little break time and lunch but the bike i have is a schwinn sidewinder mountain bike nothing spectacular but it works i was planning on getting a better seat and handles and pedals just to make it more comfortable.

instead of the clothes pins, use binder clips.. those clip suck.
I wish I could do that and skip the whole entire skool year

@echo5flight I'm assuming Anchorage, Ak - right - I've never camped up there before but camping equipment however is pretty universal. Make sure you plan miles per day that you you comfortably handle - in other words don't over do it. Get plenty of rest at nights and eat well (energy). Watch traffic carefully and always wear your helmet. Also, don't forget to have FUN - do fun things along the way (explore, photography etc.). What kind of bike do you have? I now have a Novara Safari.

Nice video. That's a heavy stove and large windscreen... you must really enjoy cooking a tasty meal. Keep it up!

My appetite on cycling trips does get a bit voracious. I could avoid all the kitchen gear by eating out (I hear a lot of cyclists do that), but I don't like to spend a lot of money while out on the trail.
A typical dinner for me is probably mac-n-chse or rice, fish or brats. Often it's just one or the other however, but yes I do love to cook frequently - it's fun.
As for the windscreen - it 's super light and squeezes in anywhere.
Thank you for your comment.
