If I had the money, if have already offered it to you...

Ultralight camping chair Contentious choice even at lightweight it will probably be your heaviest item and is not on my list as so infrequently used I have some mugs will see what i have when i get home. Ho many ml / cqpacity are you after Yeah, not sure if I really need it to be honest, first time...

Possible interest in whichever one you don't end up using, pending prices being suitably cheap for my stingy tendencies...

Mostly the two new Wildhearts tracks that have been released off the upcoming album...

Yeah, top weekend, and cheers for all the tea and toast

Well hopefully I'll have a van again by then! Longer daylight sounds like a big bonus.

Will there be new GRs for us to ignore?

Following with interest.
Currently very white in the hills of the Peak district near me.

And if the van needs to much for it's MOT today, then I'm not quite sure how I'm getting there either.

Which stations are somewhere near?

Anyone coming from Sheffield direction? My vans Mot is this week, and while I'm not as worried as some years, I've also forgotten to book it in, so not 100% sure it'll be available to use this coming weekend. If anyone was driving from this part of the country and has spare space, a lift would be gr...

Simple answer is 'no' or at least 'only by people a lot better than me' With one thing or another I made it as far as Alston (200 miles in) in 3 days. Plus an extra 22 mile off route detour, two broken caliper springs (both front), a seized rear brake (when the front was already gone) in sub-zero co...

Another vote for vittoria from me. Got 2.6 mezcals on one bike (switching to a barzo up front for winter though, in the hope of avoiding some of the 'front end going sideways when I want to go straight on or straight on when I want to turn moments, in anything sloppy) and run 650 x 47 tereno zeros o...

29 posts and nobody has said 'get a new bike', only don't - get and old bike... Have you got a rigid single speed? Reconnect with the 90s, only without dodgy gears that don't work well... Buy an old half decent mtb off marketplace for not very much, switch out a few bits from your parts bin, get a t...

Well some degree of celestial alignment occurred.

Ticket to Glasgow booked. Only we're now on a three day schedule!

How hard can it be?

Very interested in the nanos... PM coming soon.

Which compound/weight etc are they. Black or tan wall?

I’ve had a pair of the Endura ones for just over a year now, so far they are as warm and waterproof as my Shimano SPD ones https://www.endurasport.com/mt500-burner-flat-waterproof-shoe-black/14876424.html Interesting... I'm looking at a pair of the SPD version of these for winter - how do they come...

Tempting, although that is Strathpuffer weekend too... (which I don't have an entry for).

What was wrong with the bridge? I did make a point of shifting the gpx line off the track and towards the little bridge :wink: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/AP1GczPqlu-7rnoJWTQxxCEYCbjZVLVgXVHL8jnMuPHbFbuRZXOEhp38-3oWTeYhXaozBrkfBRDVmeWlfQdCJZ4s_ztfpxinsy44Gninl6-IaKrs3XfkNrg2mFn70NhTOVwjMN-...

I don't know that man but it's good to see another drop-bar-bouncy-fork imbecil

... Albeit a slightly slower one.

Which just means you had more time out enjoying yourself I think... or something

I don't feel there are nearly enough pictures of gates to give them realistic impression of what the event was truly like... And that cafe! oh yes - very happy to stumble across that for second breakfast on Sunday morning. Thank you for taking so many pictures though - apart from the gates (and mayb...

Cheers Shaf,

I like the look of the mesh side pocket thing too, but tempted by the presumably greater flapjack carrying capacity of the slightly bigger (and wider I presume?) bag. See you at the weekend...

Any pics of the Rockgeist bag? I'm tempted by that or the Miss Grape TT one. Could pick up at the weekend if you're still doing it...

*Almost* certainly won't, but I like the idea, and if the stars were to align then I'd love to tag along

Nothing flashy, but cheap is good, as it would be to replace the one that got nicked out my daughter's bike last week...

ideally 400mm, but 350m would probably be enough.

if only it was 27.2 - got loads of them knocking round, so happy to swap if anyone is in need of something of that flavour

no worries - I'm not desperate - just one of those things that will be useful one day...
