When I was younger, I started planning next year's garden each year about this time. Even though it was months before I needed to order seed, I reviewed and re-viewed any and all items I considered ordering from Burpee's or Gurney's. And so, even though it's going to be months before I embark across the US, I am planning my packing list.
Bike clothing:
three pairs of bib shorts
three pairs of socks
three compression shirts
two short sleeved jerseys
one long sleeved jersey
arm warmers
knee warmers
walkable touring shoes
lighweight cycling jacket
rain gear
Off bike clothing:
one pair shorts
one pair lighweight pants
one t shirt
two pairs boxer shorts
sandals or something suitable for use in a public shower
one small towel
Other stuff:
toiletries
sunscreen
first aid kit
ibuprofen
small notepad and pencil or pen
book for reading in camp or when forced off the bike by weather. Most likely choice is the Bible.
camera
All these items are subject to being changed, of course.

Books on mp3 might be the way to go. I imagine there are many audiobook versions of the bible out there. Downside is that you can't browse as easily if looking for a passage.
Also a downside is the loss of the physical sensation of holding the printed word - or, in the case of the Bible, the printed Word.
Will you be using clipless or platform pedals?
Platforms. Simplicity is best for something like this.
