Thanks Stu, I didn’t feel overly comfortable with putting anything antibacterial in my gut, so I’ve actually gone & ordered a trail-shot now

I have tried various makes and all taste like chemicals or disgusting.

That’s what I was trying to avoid!
Although I’m not averse to a bit of faff, my thinking was that they’d be ‘quicker’ than a filter

Never had a problem with Oasis tablets. You could always take one of those mini concentrated squash bottle to hide it, or an isotonic tablet.

If anyone wants any oasis tablets, I may have accidentally ordered 20 strips of 10, rather than 20 tablets.... happy to give away before the BB200 start on Saturday...

I'm in the Wynnstay on Friday night, and otherwise will try to find you saturday morning. Probably arriving in a red Clio, and riding a blue Forme hardtail bike in a bright blue raincoat...
If anyone else needs any spare oasis tables, just find me!
