    I would say it was much easier to tour back in 1978. You got a map and a camping guide, put a bit more air in the rear tyre and asked your girlfriend to ride pillion. No restrictions for entering cities, no stickers needed for using motorways. Only toll roads in France and Italy and you could always turn around and find some smaller roads. You always used two star camping sites, no reservations needed, always quiet and nice. Sometimes on the way home you only had money left for petrol and you had to do some free camping. People were always helpful. Good times.

    Most important tip for touring in my experience..... 100% Merino wool base layers, I lived in mine for 8 weeks under my riding gear and you can do away with clothes basically. Perfect for cold weather riding from the north of Canada all the way down to the heat of Baja. I highly recommend Icebreaker but any 100% brand will do, no smell no moisture retention... I won’t leave home without it.

      Adam Efrat, yep agree on the base layer. Try Decathlon online for more affordable options of base layers 👍

    May need to update this soon re Europe unfortunately (and I mean that from a riders point of view, not a judgement of whatever way anyone voted)
    Check emission rules if visiting cities as these can vary from city to city (as well as times of the day and days of the week) and.... think what you are doing when turning left out of a junction! Sounds stupid, but that one little lapse of concentration can easily have you pulling out onto the wrong side of the road. Done it myself a couple of times and seen others do it as well.
