My Tour Divide frame is here. The postman didn't come, I had to ride up to Exeter from work, and pay customs charges on it, and ride back with it on my back, will ride home tonight then unpack and take some pics soon. It will be rather nice.

Looking forward to seeing that.

Here's a pic Dmitry sent me last week.

That looks nice.
Very nice

The best thing about this frame is that is uses a NORMAL BB. My on-one lurcher has destroyed 4 PressFit 92 BBs in 12 months. Never again.

I also dont like press fit BB's.
Normal BB's and movable dropouts all the way for me.

Like the look of that very much

Yes, we have a choice of camouflage: got both digicam and multicam

Chilly's bottle arrived today. Looks alright. 296g empty.

Update: filled with boiling water last night, placed in freezer and 12 hours later water is about 30 degrees Celsius. Seems to do the job :)

New bits been turning up over the past few days with the prized kestrel finally arriving today. The Rab ground cloth from r &r backpacking. Heard the ul7 doesn't fit the bag so thought I would try neoair short (I only intend to use this in summer so not worried about 4 season bag and loft). Just treated myself to a pole a bear pole and support disc and then my new habitat is complete!

Put a coffee in mine at 9pm and drank it for breakfast the next morning. Albeit only stored at room temp. Reckon I can start off with a normal bottle and have the flasks for later on.

That Ti frame looks super sweet, and not having the PITA press-fit sh*t is a winner!

I ruined my Mum's hair dryer attempting to speed up the drying process on 1:72 English Electric Canberra with a Matte Black lower fuselage. I think she's forgiven me...
