What does a female adventure rider pack?

Bloated panniers filled with necessary stuff to survive on the road, 50 days.  Tiny budget requires more camping.  Hilleberg The Tent Maker provided a tremendous discount towards a Staika tent.  The little boy from Georgia (USA) sent his Flat Stanley character with the request to share the adventure for his school assignment. ​

Extra fuel bladder since my Triumph Bonneville has a small tank, another discount from Liquid Containment.   Buffs sent with love from Australia to keep me warm or cool.  The love has poured in from all over the world with items that will be treasured.  Kevlar leggings from GoGoGear will enhance my safety when regular bulky riding pants are not suitable.  Tool tubes from the ToolTube.com that will provide more storage space, particularly for heavy tools.  Yes, the bike is loaded and heavy, but all the items will make a safer and more comfortable experience to create stories and share them with you.

Cold weather gear takes up soooo much room. And I love that you carry a pillow! I can't sleep without one and having a pillow is pure luxury after a long day of riding!!! :-)
