Integrating Technology Into a Long Trip?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the useful-portable-electronic-travelmates dept.

xsalmon asks: "I am about to undergo a long trip around the continental United States, via hiking/cycling/walking and other self-propelled means of transportation, to raise money toward AIDS/HIV research. What kind of utilities/devices would you bring to increase safety/security? I'll be hauling enough in my backpack as-is, so any suggestions would have to be lightweight and portable enough. Any ideas?"

    24 hours * 7 days * 8 weeks = 1344 hours
    5062.56 miles / 1344 hours = 3.77 miles/hour

    You honestly think he's gonna ride his bike for an average of 24 hours a day??!?!?!?
