We talk a lot about pack lists for a traditional camping tour, with our panniers stuffed to the brim with tents, sleeping bags and stoves. But what about the non-campers and the minimalists who don't need to haul their shelter with them? On this episode we talk about must-carries for the inn-to-inn and credit card tourists!

Housekeeping Haven't been on the bike because I'm playing caregiver at home, but a fun tour on the horizon Will announce that tour in a few weeks on the next Pedalshift LIVE
