If I where to bike to alaska from wisconsin, how many changes of clothes should i bring? -

how many changes of clothes should i bring without getting to heavy, and how would i sleep on the way there, I have some ideas like bringing money and mapping out moltels and bringing a tent and puping it when it comes time to stop for the day, any ideas of improving my ideas or any plans of your own?

You have some mighty big plans there. I would check with some folks who have actually done something similar. I am guessing there are way more logistics then you are mentioning here. You are going though a variety of climates. And you will be traveling through some areas where you will not have places to resupply readily available (I am thinking the Yukon And Alaska, where towns can be a very very long days bike apart)Also be aware of boarder crossing regulations for travel through Canada (which include being able to show economic means for your trip, as well as not having a criminal record which makes you inadmissible to Canada) this book tells one personal story:http://www.amazon.com/Cant-Ride-Bike-Ala��and some bloggers with experience:http://arcticglass.blogspot.com/http://alaskabikeblog.blogspot.com/As for other ideas: stick to technical fabrics, more performance for less weight, they dry faster and generally preform better in outdoor athletic situations. Have great rain gear. waterproof panniers will make a big difference. You might consider a biv sack instead of a tent to save space, but it makes for a rougher trip. Layers are your friends. Carry a basic bike / tire repair kit (that you know how to use) Major parts of they Yukon and Alaska do not have cell phone coverage, so don t count on it. Parts of those highways are dirt.for the Canada and Alaska part the hands down best resource for current reliable information, The Milepost: http://milepost.com/
