Reference — Equipment
- The Brooks leather saddle.
  These are handbuilt in Britain and equipped on Pashley and many Moulton Cycles.
- George Farnsworth's Travel with Bicycles site about bike travel (Air, Rail and more…)
  I've found this to be very helpful and accurate.
- Sheldon "Mix-'n'-Match" Brown has the skinny on Dura-Ace compatibilitude.
  (Any Shimano 9-speed shifter will work just fine with his Dura-Ace 8-speed system.)
- SRAM Tech info on their Dual Drive and internal "gear hubs".
- Ed "Oh Melo Velo" Downing has a bunch of cool home-fab stuff on his "Tools page"
- I'd have a LuxuryLite Low Rise Cot now, if it didn't cost so much. No pad needed unless it's real cold. I think you can wedge a fat dog underneath it for radiant heat.
- Engineering & Design wizard Aly Khalifa's firm Gamil Design—a key member of the DesignBox [db]— has produced a large number of creative and innovative cycling and sporting gear accessories,

Organizations:
“Don't agonize, Organize.” (one of the Kennedies said that, or something like it, I think…)

- Audax UK is the randonneurring organisation in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland

Tents, stoves and other camping gear suited for bike-packing:
- Huberman's Treklite
- Stephenson's Warmlite
- Shires' Tarptent
- Ranger Rick's Digest— A great place to get camping and general outdoor cleverness tricks and tips from a retired Army Ranger. My favorite is Ranger Ricks Poncho conversion kit which happens to be my low cost lightweight summer sleeping bag. His SOS survival necklace is super compact and works and enhanced wisdom is available in his nine pocket vest size Ranger Rick Digests. Any creative person will treasure these.
- Coupounas' GoLite
- Nemo equipment tents — online videos, including "bladder replacement"!
- Brasslite backpacking stoves & vegetarian jerky
- Purcell Trench high quality lightweight grills and tarps
- Roll your own tents, sleeping bags, panniers, etc… with Homemade Backpacking Gear.
- The truly stove-obsessed will be interested in perusing Classic Camp Stoves at SpiritBurner.com, an online venue for collectors & users of vintage camp stoves such as those made by Primus, Optimus, Radius, Svea & many others. I've got half a dozen stoves I'll bet, and that website makes me want to buy 10 more!
