Set of Exped UL drybags, XS/S/M/L. Being a bear of small brain, I just have to work out whether they keep dry things dry when it's wet outside, wet things wet when it's dry outside, wet things drier when it's wet outside, dry things dry erm, er.... Maybe if something needs to stay ultra-dry, you can...

Something to read in the bath, as per WRT Grand Prize.

"Reg"

Another good thread Stu! Can't do bananas personally - had a bad experience with one as a child... too traumatic... don't like to talk about it.... As befits my old fart status, I'm very sceptical about all these "recovery drinks", "electrolyte tabs", et al. I'm sure Greg'll corr...

"ram my cables back" - same here. Never bothered with one of those nice harnesses and no probs.

"including the GR of the bench outside the shop next year"

Sounds like I've got a collector's item . Maybe he could sponsor WRT next year! Anyroad, fair play to yer man for making a go of the stores in such a remote place.

Bloody hell, sorry guys. I was hoping this might be cathartic etc, but it's gone all sad

We need a group hug.

Top effort there for Air Ambulance, Stu. Also interesting to think how much the general local economy benefitted from the onslaught. For example, since I brought little food etc I spent a fair old whack round various emporiums. In return, never mind the goods/services, I benefitted inestimably from ...

Aye, Golden Sands chippie sounds bucolic doesn't it? But it's a bit like the waymarks - we can't divulge :wink: . Oh go on then, Tywyn. Hey DPM, it was you then that nearly got taken out by the seagull! Good to meet you guys. That was excellent entertainment that place wasn't it? We've only shown pe...

Me too - best time I've had for ages! Thanks Chew for matchmaking our "LHC B Team", and to the great guys who got "matched" - Scott, Rich, Nick, Mike, n me.

Sorry to start another WRT thread but this is about "after WRT", and I need some sage advice. I’ve always thought it’s not the case that the “lunatics” inside the asylum are looking out, but of course the real lunatics are outside looking in . In the same vein, having been away in the REAL...

Yeah OCD here I confess. Don't do miles/heights/etc but like to know weights, as IanF says it helps to work out what you do/don't need. But of course the do/don't changes every trip. One weight that's easy to sweep under the carpet - apart from one's own carcase - is worn clothes. As I wondered in a...

Hi Scott, yep I reckon another taker here for "Plan B". I'm not quite as fit as I was - someone snapped me the other day on my way to the shops: http://i1296.photobucket.com/albums/ag14/chris_stevenson1/oldbiker_zpshbqphir1.jpg Would quite like to add in Barmouth Bridge if possible for the...

Yeah good point :-). Actually I've only just spotted the wellies. I'm presuming they're SPD ones. If not I'll have to switch to flat pedals. TBH I'm thinking of doing that anyway. BTW I think you're a fully paid-up LHC member Artie? Looks like Chew's kindly knocked up a "wimps [that'll be me th...

Oh. Sigh. That'll be the sandals, suncream, and corner-knotted hankie back in the cupboard then.

This'll be me instead I reckon:

http://www.extrawheel.com/en/3/bicycle_trailer/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ijnEr1kn98 (older style version but makes the point!) No contest. Super light. Brilliant cornering with a tight turning circle. Pretty much handles any technical terrain at any speed - doesn't get stuck on humps or rock...

"trashed".. gulp, that was some tea and cake party then..... Might bring my body armour....

Postie: Seam sealant to apply to mat to stop it sliding around. Don't want to end up under someone else's tarp by the morning. Well not unless I'm formally invited to of course.

"Reg"

“Spars In Their Eyes” or a WRT warm-up run Dunno whether this is “BAM” – have managed 3/4 Jan/Mar/April - or “Today’s ride” so I’ll just bung it here and hope for the best. Getting a bit worried about WRT ;-). Especially since I’ll arrive a day early with a toddle over from Caersws station via Foel...

Well I did ask didn't I . "enjoy or at least endure" - thank you, emphatically enjoyed of course. I had my suspicions a while ago that you are indeed descended from the Bard, whether Taliesin or Our Bill, or possibly both.

"What, not even Wensleydale?"

"Claerddu Cheese-a-thon" - do tell us newbies more. Sounds traumatic!

Nice one, Dr Nick, see how this IS the most important thread of the moment

Nice thread. Very important thread in fact. No milk = no tea. No tea = no ride. I'm trying to have a little bit more milk in my tea these days; with the dairy industry on its beam ends even a few ML a day helps eh? In the spirit of minimising weight, I'd like to explore the possibility of booking on...

The potential dogging aspect has been somewhat of an attraction.

Unfortunately Mrs Perrin won't let me have one. Says they bring her out in a rash and leave little presents on the carpet.

"no one says, mi duck int' Peak District". Oops, there's me generalising my regional accents/dialects as usual. I was more Derby / Erewash Valley which admittedly even the most charitable man of the Peacs would decline to admit had anything approaching a "peak" .

Seriously impressed with feats like that. I'd probably manage it OK if you lopped off the last "0" from the name.

Ey up mi duck Stu, didn't know you were a Derby Ram. Good for you.
