For all the pedal pushers out there that love long distance cycling. There are no gear requirements and no 'minimum distances' here.
Have you ridden for a cheeky overnighter or a 3 year global trek? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.
Have you got panniers, bikepacking bags or just a backpack with the essentials? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.
Have you got the latest in carbon engineering or your dads old 10 speed from the 70's? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

I dont have space (or money) for multiple bikes. My bike is set up to be do it all/touring/all road bike. Also I dont transport my bike that often and when I do I ride it there.
Multitool isnt on my wishlist because I would like to buy it myself (I dont think that my relatives would pick something useful).
But thanks for tips.
Sorry, I misread your question - I didn't realize you were looking for specific tips. I haven't yet toured myself, so I joined the sub to see what people are doing and try to figure out what might work for me.
Not specific, but my needs are completely diferent than yours. So you looked at it from your perspective.
I am just fortunate enough that my bike sees train more often than car and I dont need to feed car when I have bike and usable public transport.
