Preparing and Packing

Just about got gear sorted, I do hope it will all fit, here is my plan. The swag/tent roll will fit on the back seat with 4.5 lts of water. On the back carrier I have built I will put the Enduristan roll bag, and my solar shower bottle. The rest hopfully will fit under the seat.

Packing the roll I was concerned that some items like food would get crushed so as you can see I made a sleeve from 150mm pvc pipe with wooden caps held on with velcro. I got all I wanted to in this bag except what I intend to sleep in, hopefully they will fit in the swag roll!

All in!!!!!

I am not sure this is going to work, for my showers I have a 2.25 Lt drink bottle, I painted it black took a shower rose from an old solar shower and fitted it to a bottle top. This will be strapped to the roll bag on the back, hopefully I will get a nice warm shower each night.
