I'm not new to bicycle touring ... I crossed North America in 1979, rode Bike Ride Across Nebraska (BRAN II) in 1982, and a bike tour in southern England in 1984. Over the years many other overnight and weekend rides.
This ride will be a bit cushier ... a hotel stay every night with breakfast in the inns and lunch and dinner in pubs and restaurants. I'll pack accordingly. No sleeping bag or hostel sheet sleeping sack, no tent, no cooking kit.
I've started a list. I'll update it as I think of other items or remove the superfluous.
