driving over from hull friday afternoon anyone recomend a chip shop for tea heading south from chester on the A483/A495

^^^^^^^^^ yeah best bag i bought, its cheap because the sleeping bag stays dry for a week in winter trips

Beware of the cheap max is chronicle tyres from chain reaction mine came standard not tubeless ready

I just stuff the down sleeping bag in the sweet roll I'm not botherd if it's gets wet as its got a event shell and dry zip,no big bag needed

I don't bother weighing stuff I just take what I like.if I want to take less weight ill stop eating biscuits a month before the event can loose half a stone quite easily.
I seem to take the same stuff for a week as for 2 nights just less food

measure the tyre when your sat on the bike the footprint of the tyre will be 2.4 when its got a load

im traveliing down friday night probably sleep in my car somewere

i use a crux torpedo 350 for 3 season use then in the winter i add a phd half bag and my hooded down jacket get best of both worlds,dont need a bivvy either as its got a event shell and waterproof zip
