You are a really brave and great person, and are such a great inspiration for many of us. Good luck to all of the rest of your journey. Hoping could meet you in person some day. And, Happy Chinese New Year!

Again, Thank you!! I'm not going on a unicycle, going on a bicycle, trying to figure out what little I can take. Attempted a bicycle tour, but was carrying why to much stuff. Suggestion for anyone reading this, start with the least needed. And if you find you need something else you can always buy it on tour.

I went travelling around the world for three years in 1981-1984 doing much the same route, except hitchhiking. I had all my gear weighing about 25kg on my back. I used to get tents/sleeping bags/rucksacks etc given to me by manufacturers in exchange for photos of their kit 'in action'. Singapore was the place for camera gear. Up until reaching Singapore I had to make do with a Russian made Zenit I picked up in Moscow held together with string.

@Bablu Mandal More often than not there are no hotels/pensions/guest houses.More often than not we slept with the families of truck drivers, with villagers, sometimes with aid workers, sometimes even police outposts. It was a question of where we were and who picked us up. We also had a small tent, sometimes overnighted on trains, or buses. In Delhi and Kashmir for example we were able to pitch our tent in refugee camps for free. No I have no team, or guide book. Just a map. Travel alone yes. Nowadays I kinda like my white linen and holidays in Maui (surfing).

I have to add that your tire patch kit may be lacking in one vital way: your glue. Rubber glue is not necessarily the same as vulcanizing fluid. I commented in a previous video about your patching technique. I was getting the impression you were not letting the glue dry before applying the patch. Vulcanizing fluid requires this to achieve proper bonding. (And if your rubber cement/glue IS actually vulc. fluid, then I'm sorry I guessed wrong.) The mistake of applying a patch to wet glue is the #1 cause of patches failing for cyclists. (The #2 mistake is not sanding the inner tube sufficiently. I highly recommend putting a bigger piece of silicon carbide sandpaper in your kit - the supplied piece is useless.) It is crucial that one use vulcanizing fluid (not rubber or contact cement) on butyl inner tubes. This is actually "cold-vulcanizing" and isn't actually TRUE vulcanization, which requires high heat and melting. But it's a VERY close second and does indeed form a molecular bond between the patch and inner tube. So in other words, it is not "gluing" a patch to the tube; it's basically making the tube and patch "one," which is how patched, when properly applied, are amazing. They should never fail per se, but are merely prone to future punctures just like every other spot on your inner tube. Just thought I'd throw that out there for all the other cyclists on the road fixing flat tires. (Also, always carry a spare tube AND patch kit. Use your spare tube for the 95% of flats you get, and break out the patch kit on the 5% of bad days where you get a second or more flats.) Also, another good touring tip for tire repair is dental floss. It is GREAT for fixing a tire sidewall tear - normally deemed disastrous. I salvaged a nice Continental Town & Country from the trash about 15 years ago. It had been discarded with new tread because a brake pad had cut a hole in the sidewall. I grabbed it, took it home and went at it with dental floss. (I also used contact cement and short section of Velox rim strip to act as a boot on the inside as an extra measure.) This tire lasted daily 10 mile commuting and other use for ten years! The sidewall tear repair never failed; I simply wore the tire out. So you can salvage a disaster on the road with dental floss and your dentist will be impressed too!
