Every summer we take a trip like this one. Big Sur is one of our favorite places to visit, so we headed out on our bikes for a 3-day, 2-night camping excursion in the best part of the west coast. (2022)
Everything I have has either been used or discounted. Check out places like REI Used Gear and Mercari for some good stuff at reasonable prices.
Here’s a list of what I packed broken down into 5 categories:
