>>1615842I did exactly this on my first tour with a rented hybrid. I planned on using a big backpack and a couple of rented panniers. After about 10 minutes of riding I realised how retarded and painful the backpack was so I dumped everything on the back rack. The handling was garbage and the padded saddle completely wrecked me. Still, it was pretty funny and a good experience. It's not often you try something without first finding a community online full of people online who will tell you your plan is retarded. It was nice to learn things the hard way for once.
