Just a few suggestions based upon our "Bike" trip (what worked for us, and what might have helped)...and just a final poke at our ridiculousness!
Know how to ride a bike.
Know how to ride a bike with gear.
Know how to get your way, figure things out when they don't work as planned.
Know what kinds of roads you might be biking on, or general area you are going to be exploring.
First aid kit is essential.
Test ride in hospital parking lots with your gear, don't count.
If you can't walk it, you can't ride it (that's what she said).
If you feel so unsafe that you need to take a cab, re-think the bike trip.
Trust your instincts when you think it's a real possibility you might die or be horribly disfigured.
Plan for challenges.
Fall away for semi-trucks, when possible.
Super powers can be helpful, such as Spiderman-like abilities to get out of the way of cars.
Tie shoes tightly.
Make sure you're not riding a unicycle, unless you planned to.
:)
Over and out,
Esther
