Having a reliable mountain bike is better if you can attach a sweet bike camper to tow along on your long out-of-town trips. Bring more good stuff than can fit on a messenger bag and sleep in a cabin caravan or a tent mounted on top of your bike camper. As a survival vehicle, a bike camper is also a neat trick even if it stands out like sore thumb. Rickshaws, tuk-tuk bikes and tricycles may be ubquitous for motorized cargo bikes or passenger vehicles, but a mountain bike towing a camper is a sweet deal for downtime in safe secluded areas like nature parks.
