packing the stuff

So, here we go...
I spent the yesterday with shopping, getting all the stuff that was still missing like norwegian money, some medicine (just in case) stuff to heal mosquito bites (everybody tells us we'll be eaten alive up there).

And then I spent about an hour or so to figure out how to get all that on the bike. Not that it would be much we need, just the most important things like tent, sleeping bag, cloths, warm cloths, winter boots and gloves, some food, stove, rain cloths, hiking boots - all in all about 50kg. After having attached all to the bike, it looks as if the front will will lift off the ground as soon as I accellerate - and probably won't come down until I reach Norway.
