Original Leatherman PST multitool that lives on my belt and is used almost everyday. Leatherman recently replaced the smallest screwdriver after it broke. 28years old. Same for me. A Leatherman multi tool bought on a backpacking trip to Wyoming and Utah in 1989 when I was 22 ish. Still going well. ...

t"he riding was amazing. Whether you like fat bikes or not, and despite the lack of green, it was an amazing enviroment to ride through with the bike in its element. Perhaps that didn't come through in the film or the blog, as it became a distance memory as the difficulties mounted." &quo...

Enjoyed the blog and the film Ian... well done on the finish/placing in those conditions and thanks for sharing

Nice idea Stu... have the exact issue with a Pocket Rocket on a canister and my bodged windshield is never high enough or stable enough around the stove and a taller Ti pot... Clever 10/10

Not sure I have much to add here. But loving the Jones Plus I have that I think was originally yours Tony
No experience of any other 29+ but the format works for me!

Sorry to hear of the injury Bob... bad luck and hope you’re comfortable now. If you’re getting the train to the airport use the Flytoget from the central station. One every 20 minutes most of the day. Conductors are pretty helpful and on arrival there’s a lift from the platform straight up to depart...

Arrived safe and sound - many thanks, Mark

Yes please - PM'd you

Yep... white on the tops here Mike in N Wales today. In the forest near to the causeway out to Llanddwyn… on the 'island' itself but you may get wardens/visitors. I always liked the back of the spit that is the NW side of the Menai straight entrance. Really nice little cafe in for a stop/brekkie in ...

Even a totalitarian regime wouldn't do that to it's callow youth... socks with sandals abounds too.... how do we keep up

Cheers Steve

I’ve an eesilk mini thudbuster on the Fargo, 295g and 20mm if travel which makes a surprising difference to comfort. Looks interesting Steve... how long have you had that running? Still no issues mechanically? Did you set you seat height mid travel or does it not compress much on smoother surfaces?...

VW 4 bike version on mine. Left on permanently and no issues. Helps being 6’3” to get the inner bikes on and needs a bit organising for 4 bikes but I guess no difference to any 4 bike rear rack. Mate who is shorter can’t get his bike on without a small step/box. I turn the handlebars on the inner bi...

Sorry buddy.... only in line post in the shed is a Cube one.... looks like I’ve done the same as you and gone to Layback posts. Drop me a PM if this helps.

Let me check in the shed.... I know I have 27 posts but need to check if layback. Is 350 a defo?

This seems not dissimilar to bikehike… http://www.hillmap.com/ Topo and Google Sat imagery next to each other and you can add a track - not as easy to use as bikehike but not bad.... will likely open in the US (California) but can be scrolled to UK and seems to be OK. Options to add layers and paths...

Hello, I'm new to the forum. My 1st issue is finding a lightweight tent that I'll fit in as I'm 6'3" tall. I've googled tents for tall people but has anyone got any recommendations? I've £300 to spend. Thank you gelf Welcome to the group Gelf. I'm 6'3" too - I use a Lunar Solo (some think...

Yes please

Everyone else - I fitted a bottle cage extender to the downtube of my Burls Ti. I stupidly used the old bolt to attach the cage and did not think about it's length. It has pressed into the frame when I tightened it. Oh god I'd have cried too :sad: I commend your open honesty :-bd Maybe get it drill...

It’s the black ml3 which I brought along to the pack rafting weekend, with new bar ends and grips brooks b17 and a new Brompton T bag. Wifey caught up with you already Steve ?
