Lovely short film about Richard, the bikepacking piano tuner:

His blog has some interesting and detailed tests on minimalist overnight gear:

Makes you think.

I'd forgotten about that chap - I remember reading how he sleeps in PHD down trousers and jacket rather than a bag for 'faster getaways' or something like that in urban bivi situations. A positive kind of hobo life, inspiring stuff.

Pretty cool, though I get freaked out when a sheep coughs loudly outside my bivi so wouldn't do too well urban biving haha
