I've been wearing contact lenses since they cost as much as a house. (Back in 1979 you got one pair and they lasted about a year). Spent most of my teens on my hands and knees searching for the one that got away. (the lens that is) I've broken every rule I was told about wearing them and I'm still a...

A day late, but what the heck. Happy birthday, Stu.

Hi all, I haven't been on the forum for a while but I'm back and starting to work my way through the posts. Feels like I've missed out on loads of cool goings on and great trips. This is the first part of two about bikepacking through the Draa Valley in Morocco. A 100 km stretch between Zagora and A...

Cycle Magazine with Dave Barter's Costa to Costa.

I used to own some rush lights which were an old method of lighting. They were simple iron structures with a part where you could stuff straw/rushes dipped in tallow or some form of animal fat to which you could light. They burned for quite a decent amount of time so I'm thinking you could possibly ...

It was mighty chilly on the Saturday night, John. 17 C - Brrrr.

Thank goodness you know what you're doing.

Gee, I feel like a total dork now!

It's attached with a quick release spindle. Do I measure the diameter of the spindle?

Where do I measure from?
Or will it be written somewhere, on the hub perhaps?

I've banjaxed my front hub from overuse and probably not enough servicing because I'm a bit lazy when it comes to these things. You can hear me coming from a mile away! Crunch, clunk, clank. I'm not so sure my wheel is worth repairing so if anyone has something to offer I'd love to hear from you. Me...

3/3 for me. I found a den in the woods so I decided to bivvy alone. Conversation was a bit one-sided, but I gave it my best shot.

Bivvy a month-February.
20 miles there, 50 miles back. Caught two ferries, missed one. 2 Bikes, a hill in a dark skies reserve, and strangers in the night.

I'm back in the clearing out zone, so giving this a nudge.

Here's a wee present for you and Helen. The Toy Dolls. I've placed them in my trug with a bit of parsley to give them an off-road feel.

Managed to get the first of the year in.

Bloody freezing but at least the rain stayed away. 70 miles in total which is pretty massive for me. And a wee blog too.http://www.farawayvisions.com/bivvy-a-month-january/

Super. That was speedy.

Stu won't be happy!

Yes, that is rather unfortunate positioning of a bush.

Teetosugars, I have the clips on my suspension forks in the above pic.

We're clearing out surplus equipment to make our move to Portugal a bit easier.

More goodies coming soon (including a small yacht)
