Never got around to getting the replaced so I was smelling pretty bad... I really shoulda got my change of clothes replaced...
I also had gloves which were not too warm. The first week was raining and 40 degrees every day. I was underdressed for that. Next time Ill bring warmer gloves and some of those bike shoe warming covers
Bike clothing makers say not to use bleach but maybe on an UL tour it might help. Some backpackers add a few drops to drinking water, after all. Anyway, the trip sounds fun...challenging yes but not punishing for a fit younger UL rider. What saddle?
