Но да, я в путешествия беру телефон (и держу его выключенным, естественно). Иногда бывает полезен.

Это термин такой. По умолчанию, когда говорят bike touring, подразумевается, что ты берёшь с собой спальник, палатку, плитку и кастрюльки.
А можно вместо всего этого взять кредитку. Она легче и занимает меньше места.
