Suitable distance to keep between cars - 1991-1994 4.0L 242ci Manual Transmission Radiator

.1. Keep it cheap. Expensive bicycles with top-of-the-range parts can be a disadvantage if, for instance, they break in rural Turkey where there's no hope of finding suitable spare parts. <br /><br />2. Set off with a little bit too much. You can always sell or give away things en route if the going gets tough. <br /><br />3. Save yourself the pain. Buy a second-hand saddle that's already been worn in by someone else. <br /><br />4. It doesn't have to be steel. Aluminium-frame bicycles are cheaper, lighter and strong enough for the job, providing you ride sensibly. <br /><br />5. Travel with four panniers. This requires having both front and back frames fitted to your bicycle. Cycling with a rucksack is a sure route to back pain and misery, while towing a trailer means two extra wheels that could suffer punctures. <br /><br />6. Schrader tyre valves, also known as "car-type" valves, are more practical than presta valves as they can be inflated at any garage. <br /><br />7. Get a Visa debit card. These are accepted in far more cash machines than any others. <br /><br />8. See crazyguyonabike.com, where you can find dozens of articles about long-distance journeys, as well as discussion forums and reviews. <br /><br />9. Most importantly of all, you don't need to be called Lance Armstrong. Most of the cyclists I met during my journey had no previous cycling experience. It didn't stop them. It won't stop you. <br /><br />
