Dick: as a touring cyclist. Dyno hubs are best saved for lighting. The trickle you will get from a usb adaptor won't be much. For phones and poo poo, get a solar panel and a cache battery.
Dyno lights, however, are the loving poo poo.

Ah, i had recieved the exact opposite (aside from lighting) info from a delivery cyclist here in Seattle, and well i love me some gadgets

So if I read this correctly you plan to take transport to North Flatte then cycle 200 odd kms with 20ish kgs of gear?

Thats a good plan and very doable. You might find you can cycle faster than you are estimating

If only it was flatte.



Checking the map, longest stretch of no services of any kind is about 60 miles on its own, at the tail end of summer. Adequate hydration will be crucial.



It'll be a hard day's ride, for sure.

Right, got it, so it's servicing split rims and running brake lines via sheer gumption. Well I'm on board, it'll be entertaining at least!

Buy a 100oz camelbak and as many giant water bottles as can fit on you bike.

60mi is totally doable in a day for virtually anyone given that you've broken in your rear end to sit on a bike for 4-6 hours with <4000ft of climbing, loaded.

Oh, make sure you bring some spare spokes and have someone show you how to replace a spoke abd true wheels. 50lbs of gear is harder on a bike wheel than 50lbs of human.

I'm guessing delivery cyclists run faster/lighter than touring cyclists so I can see them running the dyno hard enough to charge a phone.

14" at burning man. What, as they say, could possibly go wrong?

The dizzying kalidescope of terrors that whip past my mind's eye when I, metaphorically speaking, suspiciously glance sidelong at the thought while carefully avoiding making eye contact, well. This is me mentally walking away briskly and refusing to contemplate the matter any further. Nope.

Have two friends who are former suicide girls, and plenty of burner friends. They're always batshit crazy.

.... usually in a good way, but not always. (some day I WILL go to burning man, it just won't be anytime soon, since $$$)
