hey bike nerds,
i'm planning on starting on my first bigger bike tour since a few years and want to go for a bike trailer (that fits a bit more than what i usually bring for backpacking/hitchhiking; so i guess it would be like 100l or something). i don't have a bike trailer yet and really like...
Ok y'all, I'm putting some feelers out on his early.
I have this romantic Kerouac-esque plan to hitch across the country this spring, then set up home base in 4 cities I very much enjoy for a season each to experience something other than Brooklyn, where I've lived my whole life.

I recently went to the flea market scavenging for parts.One part in particular was a rear rack.Hopefully a hefty one,as I was looking around I seen the old plastic seat for kids that sat over the back wheel on a rack.Never gave much thought about how well it needed to be built until I became an...
Hi all, been off the road for a few years, but I lost my job and place due to the virus, I've missed it anyway. If anybody knows any place to get cheap dental work done (I'm talking root canals, so fairly intensive) I'd appreciate it. I'm aware of dental schools that do reduced pricing so if you...
I don't advise anyone travel right now unless you have to. Particularly on airplanes. But if you HAVE TO, "bundle up" and do it.
LAX to Chicago one way is $19
LAX to NYC is $29 one way.
This was on Expedia. Probably if you looked around you could find one even cheaper?
I never really throught about having to take this idea seriously but with all current events considered, it seems like now might be a good time to look into saving up and buying some cheap acreage to call "home."
Does anyone happen to know of any websites or resources to find cheap property for...
I'm probably ending the end of my shoulder injury soon and have some savings but not as much as I'd like.

Has anyone done this? Purchased a somewhat junker cheap car for traveling and driven it until it was on its last legs then sold it to the scrap heap and started hitching or other forms of transportation at that point? I can see some down sides if it breaks down in the middle of now where and...
I know I'm asking for a holy grail, but just figured I'd throw the question out there.

You can take a big boat from Rome (Grimaldi Lines, 40E) or Genoa (70E?) to Barcelona. Hitching sucks in short days and shitty weather this time of year, the boat lets you take way more...
A tip for folks with just a few dollars. I bought these to protect some of my gear in the all day florida rains - despite some of the reviews, it did just that and I am quite happy to get two water proof bags for this price.. :D...
how do you stretch your dollars when it's time to go the distance?
let's say theoretically you have no musical talent, so busking is out the window.
how long could you pedal on 3-4 grand?

https://www.everyoneon.org/ is a place where you can get cheap refurbished computers and it looks like, if you prove you are on food stamps, you can get a years worth of 4g wifi for around $200. The bulk of that cost going towards the hardware.
As a question, I've been hearing about a REAL simple style of fly fishing called Tenkara. Essentially stick, line and a fly. In searching Amazon and staying away from the pre-built kitch-kits or the name branded hipster tax, it seems you can put a setup together for around $20-25.
Anyone know...

Hey everyone, I need a medium sized alice pack for train hopping and everywhere I look online sells them for quite a bit of money, like over 20 bucks which doesn't sound like a lot until you consider that that doesn't include a frame or any straps or anything. Since I'm buying those seperate Im...
Looking to get a home base pretty soon. Want to avoid bourgeois as much as possible and be in an alternative community, preferably with a nice music (really into noise n shit) and anarchist scene. Also, it's gotta be cheap.
I have a few places in mind like Denton TX, Philadelphia PA, Richmond...
So I am trying to get a better sleeping bag then the one I currently have. The one I have is just one from target, it's not meant for much more than sleeping in like a cabin or something. The funds are low so does anyone know a good sleeping bag I can get that isn't going to break the bank? Thanks!
Something you need to consider if you are preparing for a SHTF scenario is food. Storing food may seem like a daunting and expensive task, but I found a list by “AZPrepper” which makes things easier for you. He basically came up with a list of $5 food items that you can purchase each week for a...
Hello everyone. I joined half an hour ago. Girl in her twenties, no experience, foreigner, looking for adventure, read a lot about hitchhiking. Sorry, but there'll be no long introduction since it's 3 AM here. I have a question though. How long will it take to hitchhike from Boston to Oregon if...
I've seen a lot of people posting here about having lice from time to time so I thought I'd share the method we used that really worked even on the medication-resistant variety of little fuckers we contracted. (Thanks to my ex-husband being a negligent fuck for this educational experience.)...

Back in January of 2017, I got a $1,000 from a car accident. Since I was bored I decided to hit Texas for the sheer joy of it. Life was short and I wanted to have found memories before I die.

I just picked up a little First Act acoustic guitar, and was wondering if anyone had any advice or suggestions for making it sound/play better or improving its longevity.
I don't know where else to put these, so have fun. Hope you guys get some use out of them.

What stops you from buying the lenses you want? It isn't that you don't care about your images, it is that the lenses cost so much, presumably. This usually is true.
But I found a hack. Not many people know about this, but those who do love it. Here are the steps to getting the stats you want...
There is this sweet website that I check every day that I have internet access called geartrade.com and they generally have super high end backpacking gear for really cheap, or sometimes still really expensive, but that's why you have to check daily because shit goes fast. I bought a $450...

Aside from the usual places like Craigslist, eBay and Amazon does anyone have any advice for sourcing a cheap HD camera? I love to take video of the places I visit for posterity but given my lifestyle my equipment invariably ends up broken, stolen or both.
Hey all,
I need food/ drink, fruit, nut, and vitamin suggestions on mood stuff (mostly depression), protein, dry skin and hair, menstrual stuff (ALL OF IT), and allergies/ congestion, and falling and staying asleep. I don't have access to herbs, and even if I did they would be costly. I know...
There's so many methods of trying to get rid of these damn things, most of them are expensive, take too long for results, or simply don't work. The most common method is slapping some duct tape on and pray. Though after doing a ton of research to demolish a wart on my finger after slicing it...
If you need antibiotics for an infection and cant get a doctor's prescription, consider going to a pet store and checking out fish mox. It is identical to amoxicillin prescribed by a doctor, you can verify the pills with google that they are identical to what the pharmacy will give you. $20 got...

I'm currently on the west coast in Oregon Washington area, but really anywhere is good to know about, I just feel like there ought to be some kind of resource list for getting sleeping bags, boots, coats, packs etc for free or really extremely cheap thrift stores around the country
So, I'm a housie and I love Thrift Stores. The one down the street is closing:( and is offering steep discounts:). Somebody else in the house noticed how thrilled I am about thrift store scores and shared this video with me. I get so jazzed about finding something nice for cheap. I'll even...

This hang glider enthusiast decided to by a cheap £600 van and spent about £400 pimiping it out. As you'll see in the video he did a pretty damn fine job for spending just under £1000.
So its been a while since i did anything constructive other than make some penny stoves for a few folks so i decided to improve my life a bit and tackle my lack of plumbing and fresh (hot) water in my newly aquired rv.
So i did a google search for just that (homemade hotwater) and come across...
what kind of bike should i be looking for?
i don't know much about bikes and have no idea where to start looking
i have a skateboard but i think i'd rather bike.
I saw some recent posts on how to slicky some boots/shoes whatever. The day may come when there are no stores to steal from and you'll need to make your own. May not be as nice as some footwear made for profit, but it is a good thing to be self reliant...
