Re: Cycling Touring help - Venice????

Stayed on Lido a few years back and the water buses just seemed like a free for all. Alternatively, if I remember correctly, the water taxis weren't overly expensive

Re: I bought a hammock now I have questions

I got my first hammock last year, a TW Green Hornet, and absolutely love it. The bit that used to drive me badly was the rigging and taking down, with miles of cord everywhere.

Re: Taking your bike on the train

Mate and I were planning on catching train from Yorkshire to Edinburgh and then cycling to Glasgow and then Inverness. Had to change our plans as on the day of return, only one train that day and it only had one bike space.

Re: DD Hammocks/Tarps??

I bought a Tenth Wonder Green Hornet hammock last year (more for canoe camping) and its great. Use it with a DD 3 x 3 tarp

Re: FREE: Crewsaver air only life preserve

Hi. I'd be interested in that as I do a bit of sailing. Let me know if it's still available and what you would like for it including postage to Doncaster.

Cheers

Cheers for the feedback and suggestions all. I'll have a play around and probably get some proper luggage next year.

Planner Rack

Just getting in to backpacking and cycling in general. I have most of the gear after years of kayak / canoe camping but struggling to work out how to carry it.
