And ordered, thanks :D

And to round of the ordering a new pair of Funkier Bib Shorts and some dual straps, and a 4l airlok from alpkit.

Bought some of those humvees a while ago

Much lighter than normal humvees, they're nice but annoyingly have no back pocket!

I think my Borah bivvy bag is at the post office. Just need to pay £14.43 and it's mine after 2 long months of waiting. And on Tuesday I should receive some leg warmers, some overshoes and some new gloves. I can't bear the anticipation!

My new & unbent gear hanger has arrived for the Fargo. That's tonight's entertainment sorted.

Borah bivvy is here! It's blimmin light, but it feels too flimsy to last more than 5 minutes - I hope it's tougher than it feels!

Looking forward to a trial night in it (it has a bug net as well, so it will be great for Scotland

As above, my Borah Gear bivvy arrived today (actually I had to go collect it and pay £14.43 in customs duty) It took five weeks from order to delivery. Cost was US$85 pus $25 postage and the £14.43 so £80 all in. Only time will tell if that's good value - as slarge says it really does feel pretty flimsy. Giving it a test run this weekend up near Cannock Chase.

My Alpkit seatpack in Stealth Orange was waiting on the doormat today....plus 100g of acetic acid, all ready for the Elderflowers to get their act together

Goodies from alpkit arrived today possum in blue and 8l airlock extra

Lusso padded shorts, 20l AlpKit drybag (the one with the mounting point on it) 2x shimano brake pads and some water puri tabs.

A nice new quilt arrive nearly 6 month after I spent the money.

Sorry

Though given what a soft southerner you are there's no chance the weather was warm enough for you to use it yet

I got some shorts with heavy crotch wear caused by another man and a riding cag that's going to be great, in the winter . Cheers Chris

Already packed for WRT

Map of Snowdon
Electrolytes
Castelli merino wool socks
Castelli bib shorts
Carbon superfeet for my road shoes

and I also got my two watches fixed today

Shure headphones iPhone lead, 2x space blankets, and a GorillaPod so I don't have to carry the big tripod on the bike.

Just need to go pickup my new Hope Ceramic BB fro the LBS this afternoon.

Luxe Mini Peak II for me today.

Ordered on Wednesday evening. Great service from Backpacking Light.

...too next door, and delivered my sawyer mini filter, now to wait for them to get home.....

The neighbour's got my X lite mat.....the fiend!

Ive been eyeing Luxe stuff on bplight for ages, especially the Mini Peak. Cant bring myself to pull the trigger though, not with a TN Laser Comp in the cupboard that doesnt get much use as it is. Hope you enjoy it.

Cheers TBD. If I had a TN Laser Comp I probably wouldn't have bought it. It was between the Zephyros 1 lite, the SMD Lunar Solo and the Mini Peak II for me and the Mini Peak won out. Test pitch in the garden was a success!

At last ive got my sawyer mini! Just after the event it was ordered for :/ ah well! :D
As Stu said in his review, there really is no excuse for not having one

Anything cages from on here arrived today.

Dirt baggies and bibs. Look really good and baggies are nice and light. Bibs a big kinky though for wearing without the baggies as there all mesh

Great service too, free postage, they emailed me to confirm sizing and it arrived within the week from USA with no duty to pay

After John Climber mentioned them in February, I placed an order straight away for some BB7 rubber boots. They've just arrived! I'd totally forgotten and assumed the order had been rejected as they were OOS!

Titec Jones H bars here. Can't wait to try them out on the Karate Monkey
