It might be the old Boy Scouts motto, but when it comes to adventure riding, especially when you’re heading well off the beaten track, it pays to be prepared.
Bike set-up, luggage load, tools, spare parts, camping kit, riding gear, route selection, communication devices, first-aid knowledge and dealing with an emergency are just the beginning of countless aspects that should be well considered before you set off on your adventure ride.
The more prepared you are, the more enjoyable your ride will be, and the better you will be able to deal with a crisis should things, heaven forbid, turn to crap.
