Plus, there are two great bothies not far from the top of Honister Pass.

@benp1 Wheelbase in Staveley has them in stock - £7 a piece.
@RichardG Wheelbase also has Smidge in stock.

Black, unused.

£40 posted.

To beg, borrow or buy.

I've got the first version of the cage so the arms only fit 31.8mm diameter bars and don't work on my new 35.0mm bar.

Does anyone have the new 35.0mm arms?

Another happy 3D Print Direct user here. The cheapest I've found for small one-off jobs, and I really like the finish on the Graphite-SLS and PA12-MJF materials.

The website seems to be down at the moment

Following on from an earlier thread about sleeping mat R-ratings...

"It took him 45 minutes to chip his way into his sleeping bag each night, as during the day it froze flat like a slab of tombstone granite."

They say: “The future provision of some of the educational courses for children currently offered by Cumbrae National Watersports Centre will now be run from Inverclyde National Sports Training Centre. Other training provision will be provided by the Royal Yachting Association Scotland." But In...

There used to be the National Watersports Centre on Great Cumbrae. It was truly world class, staffed by excellent outdoor types. Sportscotland made the utterly bonkers decision to close the centre last summer. I don't have words to describe the numpties responsible. You'd often see tourists who'd co...

I have a spare, taken from a new Canyon. It clamps at the lever and looks like this one: https://www.chainreactioncycles.com/bra ... prod149026.

Lever only, i.e., you'll need to supply the cable. £12.50, including P&P.

The Wildcat double-ended drybags are very good. I have an unused Alpkit Airlok Dual 13L in kelp you can have, if you're interested.

Another MLD user here - I've got the Solomid XL. How about a Duomid or Duomid XL? Loads of space, single-pole, minimal pegs (more pegs increase bomb proofing), use with a polychro groundsheet for minimal weight/pack-size, or add an inner net for midge proofing.

Hi Tony

If that doesn't pan out, I have a couple of Gorilla Cages complete with straps, unused in original packaging.

Hi

I'm in the UK but have the Snowpeak Titanium Spork which I'd be happy to sell to you. This one: https://snowpeak.co.uk/products/titaniu ... 2eb7&_ss=r

£9 plus £2.90 for Hermes delivery?

Could you perhaps use a cache battery with a long lead? Keeping the cache battery close to your torso should keep the voltage high.

Rationalising my toolbox; all the following are lightly used and in good order. All prices include P&P; discounts for multiple items.

Aiguille's a small family business, tucked away at the back of the yard in Staveley. Adrian is a top bloke; his son Jonny set off to sail solo around Britain at the age of 16.

I know some folks tried their bike-packing bags; it would be nice to see some long-term feedback.

Which of the many OutDry jackets do you have?

Top marks to Lancashire PROW team for getting back to me quickly. They say the Cornwall CC rule applies in Lancashire too: 'IN LAW A BICYCLE IS NOT CONSIDERED TO BE A 'USUAL' ACCOMPANIMENT ON A FOOTPATH. TO PUSH (OR CARRY) A BICYCLE IS, THEREFORE, TO COMMIT A TRESPASS AGAINST THE HOLDER OF THE LAND ...

To clarify, I was walking with my bike at my side. I couldn't have ridden if I'd wanted to. And the corn was so dense that walking without the bike wouldn't have been much quicker. "However, in law a bicycle is not considered to be a 'usual' accompaniment on a footpath. To push (or carry) a bic...

I've had a response from Lancashire's Public Rights of Way team. It may be useful to others. It may also raise a chuckle. [1] [Footpath 2-20-FP 4 from Whin Lane End to Waterside Farm] is a public footpath and anyone is allowed to walk it as often as they wish [2] The landowner has obligations not to...

Many thanks. Email sent to their Public Rights of Way team.

I was exploring the Lancashire hinterland yesterday. The OS map shows a public footpath but there's precious little indication that it still exists on the ground. There was no signage, stiles were overgrown with thorns and nettles, a bridge was in serious disrepair and, for the finale, the farmer ha...
