Equipment

My portable home and all the equipment will be carried in waterproof bags that are attached to the bicycle. Items that are needed more often (cooking and clothes) are placed on the left side, because I always step off the bike on that side and lean it against the other: Hence, my “home” will roughly be organized in the following manner:

Left front bag: Kitchen
Right front bag: Workshop

Left rear bag: Wardrobe
Right rear bag: Bedroom

Rear rack: House (Tent)
Handlebar bag: Office
