Gear checking list

Vietnam Cycle gears checklist

The key to staying comfortable while on an active trip is layering. To get maximum comfort with minimum weight, you need versatile layers that mix and match to create the right amount of insulation, ventilation and weather protection. This gear list has been created to help you choose the proper equipment. Try to bring only what is necessary; this will help you and the field staff.

Weather: Throughout our trip, morning temperatures are typically in the 20-32°C range, warming to the 80s or low 90s during the afternoon. High humidity can be expected in most of the regions we visit.  Rainfall is a possibility at any time during the year.  Staying adequately hydrated and using appropriate sun protection should be a priority for all trip participants.
