Getting stuff together

We have started to put things in the front bedroom ready for the trip. We are attaching backpacks to the Bromptons rear rack which is an idea we got from another cycling blog. It all looks a little weird compared with our usual touring bikes. We should in theory be able to change from cycling to being standard tourists very quickly. The haversack goes on your back, the bike folds into a black bag and the front bag you carry as a satchel.When you fly you check in two bags (bike and backpack) and the front bag is your carry on stuff.
With our tent in the back pack with sleeping gear and cooking apparatus the weight is going to be a real factor here. Both for carrying it on our cycle journey and getting it all within the 20KG hold 10KG carry on limit.
