Dude.... Please stop teasing me.. My bike already does that a LOT to me... Now I really want to do a long multi-day solo ride... You just fueled my fire with more NOS... 😂

Anyways... Awesome pics... I'd love to ride with you some day on those roads.. Missing all the similar trips my dad used to do with me and mom..

Reading again and again your TL do not satisfy me. Your inviting GREEN GREEN pictures are too much of teasing. Must visit this route in the same season.

There you go

A solo ride is great to discover oneself. And that would a hell of a route to choose on.

Hi Gopro Man

You got a wonderful thread and an awesome youtube channel... Admire your riding spirit...

Am just curious about the riding gear you use in your rides in rain... Jacket, Gloves, Bag(s), Shoes... Can you let me know some info on this?

Because my biggest worry riding in rain is to protect my phone, wallet, dslr, etc

I do not have any special gears for rain. I have normal spartan helios jacket, same brand riding pants and normal sports shoes. Call me crazy but to feel the rain, I even removed rain inliners from both pant and jacket

So I just get drenched on rain thats all. Purse do not get wet much as it will be in my back pocket. However for mobile and purse I carry normal grocery store plastic covers and wrap them(use two for extra protection :P ). Also helios jacket front pocket on right is water proof as they claim. but don't trust that as water do get in sometimes.. these plastic covers will be ones which will save your day

and I have no dslr or any other camera apart from my gopro. which has rain proof case anyway.

we don't have many good options I guess, do we?

The transparent ziplock covers work well too.
If the size is right, you could use even a touchscreen phone/tab without taking it out

Yes ziplock covers work too... But accessing phone without taking out will work only if the phone is a resistive touch, if it is a capacitive touch screen it wont respond... Anyways I am more concerned about DSLR as I am interested in photography while riding, I am thinking of getting a waterproof case for my camera... That should work with minimal care I guess...

In my limited experience with both the screen types, I've not had any big issues with them.

Anyway, good luck

Re: 2200km- 6 days -Life on ride, road and in rain!

Yeah I have seen that too. It depends on the cover again I guess. When I use normal plastic then I dont have to remove the phone out of plastic to swipe. I can very well do it on the plastic itself. It may be on the thick cover it might not respond.

Thanks,
Arun
