Unless you want to make a fort at night, I really would not bring an axe along. Finding firewood for a campfire is usually not a problem. But a too heavy bike

But a too heavy bike is.
I did it bike camping a lot and my advice is, only bring what you absolutely need. Without extra burden, everything is much more enjoyable and you will have more energy to reach the nice spots.
- minikomi 5y agoI do a lot of slow bike camping in Japan where the campsite will often provide firewood, but it's too large for the small solo stove I have. I've tried a saw, but what I really want is thinner wood split from the larger pieces, not lateral cuts. The axes being talked about are only about 470g, which doesn't bother me too much shoved in a pannier.
