GPSies

A GPS device can be very helpful when driving in the city. The device's announcements allow you to fully concentrate on the traffic and have a lower risk of getting lost. Nevertheless, you should always have a card with you in case of emergency. Technical devices could fail, for example due to empty batteries.

The bike

The most important partner on your tour is the bike. Therefore it must be completely functional. Nothing is more annoying than standing in the vast landscape with a broken bike. Regardless of whether you have your own bike or rented it, check the bike for road safety before every ride.

Check whether the tires have enough air and all screws are tight. Does the light on the bike work? Is the chain OK? Test the brakes before a longer tour and consider the change in braking distance on a heavily loaded bike. Shift through the gears and make sure that all gears can be shifted smoothly. To avoid unpleasant surprises on longer day trips, test the equipment on a shorter trip.
