Haven't seen much posted about this. Who's in, who's out, and where are people planning to go? I'm in, and am thinking of a mainly road ride with a bothy, but a bothy far from the grid refs. Probably solo unless someone wants to tag along. Was considering actually cooking as well rather than pub fo...

Have I just missed the thread on this?

I've been eyeing up 4x4s for a while.... Biggest issue with the bimmer and snow is more the lack of ground clearance than the more obviously issues!

Postponed due to the roads being shut / dodgy. Hopefully all those attending are now informed. We shall choose another date in the not too distant future :-bd I got the message 120 miles into my journey there :-bd glad I got the message then and not when I was beached in my car nearly there :lol:

Warm clothes being packed. Er, summer tyres on car....oh well!

Is there any vague plan to stop at a pub for dinner, or is it a bring all the food we need type affair planned?

I'll be there Stu.

I'm intending to go to one of the winter bivi's, not sure which one yet as not sure where a y are starting from
Thought I best post up here so I don't miss updates.

I have the dremel versatip - that's fine for hobby useage and cutting webbing and odd bits of soldering etc. Probably not professional level...but once you reach that you'll probably no what you want and justify spending lots!

Hi Steve, starting to get back into it thanks.

I'm considering doing this somepoint in the next couple of months...so hopefully I don't get shot...

I'll add my name to the queue!

One of those files is a direct stem mount one. Get it printed in a decent material and sorted

oh, and if you get a metal one - some insulation (foiled bubble wrap) makes a helluva difference to reducing condensation.

I'm a fan of those plastic keter sheds, I've put up a couple and taking delivery of one soon, the more expensive ones really are a good product and I'd certainly recommend them over a wooden one at the same price point. They don't move around with moisture etc. as much as a wooden one, no rot and ar...

PM incoming

Just trying to work out what welding helmet I'd need to get to go with it etc.

Have you sold this Shaf? Interested for things like spraying 2k paint and maybe with a smaller mask if I'm welding in an enclosed environment maybe...

Cool, no worries

Are these sold? Wife needs some tyres for the bike she never rides

Great work Steve, dead impressed

Love it Stu

Good luck Steve, I'll be watching your dot.

https://i.imgur.com/Y9UlImM.jpeg Yes in case you're wondering it is a Mazda 323... Bravo, they have a special place in my heart and is the very reason I taught myself to weld! That's the cool pop up lights version (BG), I had/have a BJ (snigger), learnt to drive in one and was my first car. https:/...

Yeah, sorry I'm a bit hopeless these days....

I could perhaps keep the Bear Bones events up to date on it and then it's no bother for people to keep it on their list of calendars if they want and is still relevant that way?

Yes, echo the above. Thanks to Stu+Dee + everyone else who made this happen. Great to be back and see you all.
