Many of these trees were my friends!!

Very understandable, doing the same route twice when touring somehow can feel like a waste.

Stunning photo again! I opened it before I read the text and was looking for your bike in the picture for some time, since it’s a trademark ;) But now I understand. Have fun!

Man, that is a ridiculously good looking town. Sounds like a great time, how much of the montañas vacias route are you planning on doing?

A good pizza after riding a bike is one of the great pleasures in life, enjoy!!

Yeah I think the heel drag problem is bigger for me because I have the click-system pedals (shimano SPD), so the part on the axle of the pedal is relatively in front of the foot.

I do love products that offer a good guarantee, it ends up really paying off.

I think relatively low mounting option for panniers could be important, lower centre of gravity is important for ride quality/comfort. Also, important for you to be able to get the panniers sufficiently to the back so your heel doesn’t clip the bag. Stuff like a good light fixing spot is a nice-to-have - at least I always turn the lights on when it rains, for safety.

If my bike had the mounting points I would have gone for something nice from tubus or a similar manufactorer, but since it doesnt I had to pay 300 euros more for a tailfin (which, as a product, is really great by the way. But prohibitively expensive)

I’mnnot sure I’ll be of much help, I have a tailfin system. I have to say, I really love their rack top bag as it’s very convenient and well made.

I tend to favour a durable and convenient system (usually unfortunately on the expensive side). When I’m not sure what features exactly I’m looking for Intend to buy the very cheapest option, and whilst using it work out what features are important to me. Then I buy the good stuff and give away/resell the cheaper system.

I believe there is clear evidence/jurisprudence showing that (at least some of the trustworthy) VPN providers donnot keep ANY data.
