That looks like a lot of clutter.
Small espresso stove for me.

Kelly Kettle: carry it on the rack, between the panniers, with your tentWould not bother with the Kettle, for flexibility take a small aluminium(light) pan with lid , on the off chance you do want to heat up a tin of beans as well as boil water, easy to pack stuff in the empty pan with big elastic band to keep lid on.
A few medium freezer bags are good to keep feet/hands warm and keep odd and sods dry if it rains a lot.
I use a dual sun/insect repellent cream saves a tiny bit of space/clutter.
No, I won't. Honestly.
The thought alone makes me gag.
Had a freeze dried meal instead and suffered 10 f**gging hours of heartburn.....you live and learn.
My Partner has got a very similar set on her bike (might even be the same) and you will be surprised at how little 28 litres is, good starter/commuting set though but for carrying lots of stuff a bit piddling. Maybe I'm spoiled though as I have a pair of Carradice that are 35-40 litres each for big stuff along with varying sizes of Topeak bags with drop down panniers.Very interesting post, getting me in the mood for summer ☺I've also been looking for a set of panniers recently mainly for lugging all our family's kit down the beach, picnics and hopefully camping trips! I've found these but they're not waterproof, on the flip side the price looks good and they look like they can hold a lot of stuff. Are they worth considering?

Shoes and bags = necessary and justifiedI've decided to start blogging my adventures in bike-packing. Or as my wife likes to call it, wasting money on a mid-life crisis.
