Flatfishy and Norms magical mystery tour.

[Bearbonesnorm]

Three days, two nights and no idea how far. The weather was superb considering it's half way through March, no rain and just cold enough to keep you riding



You wouldn't believe how much down there is in this photograph! Flatfishy and his winter palace




My lovely Lair with bug net inner ... very comfy it is.




I always think it's a shame that there's hardly any legal riding in the Rhinogs.




It's much higher than it looks ... so we decided not to make it a WRT check point




It got surprisingly hot on the second day.




It also got surprisingly misty on the third day, as you can see from this picture of the 'RAB Brothers'

[gairym]

cool, did you do the coin-navigation idea....?

[Bearbonesnorm]

did you do the coin-navigation idea.

If I'm honest gairy, no we didn't ... it was just more of a 'lets go this way and see what's there' kind of affair

[gairym]

fair enough (cowards!).



i think i might try it at some point.

[Bearbonesnorm]

I think your dice idea would work better. It'd give you more options, eg odd number = left, even number = right,
1 or 2 = left, 3 or 4 = right, 5 or 6 = straight on ... I'm sure you know what I mean.

Anyway I think Flatfishy was starting to get fed up with my 'it's just over this hill' and 'I recall it's pretty flat from now on' lines

Looks like you had a great time. Makes me want to get out there. But I am paralised by indecision, oh and OUT OF STOCK on most of the stuff I need.

Like the Bivi set up any chance of a little review? Bivi Tarp etc on my need list.
