Re: Bum Butter Question.
Two pairs of shorts and a bar of soap. Wash in the sink and then wear the others while they dry.

Re: New Bike Gear Out And Due Out...
Yes and it was all done to save weight and now those cassettes weigh 600g + ( unless you get very spendy) so you no longer save weight over 2 x ...and simplify drivetrains, make them less susceptible to grotty conditions, not bounce off on bumpy terrain, allow bigger tyre and mud clearances for fra...

Re: Lachlan Morton on the great divide
Aside from how well you know the route or how much prep you do you can make any weekend ride more self-sufficient by carrying your own food. If I carry all my food and top up with diesel at my local Tesco I can travel from Suffolk and spend a long weekend in Wales all while contributing nothing to ...

Re: Taping frame
For short trips, I too now use electrical tape. Easy on and off, no mess, cheap and as the frame is black, it's not unsightly. With the proprietary tapes, I find dirt gets under the edges and looks manky and it's always there. Yep, my best results have always been with electrical tape, it contours ...

Re: New 500km event in Wales
On the day I signed up I had trouble making payment. I later got an email saying there was a glitch and to try again as it was sorted.
My mate just messaged to say he'd been charged twice for entry. I just had a look and I've been charged four times!
Deffo worth checking your CC transactions...

Re: Normal 29ers ?
Vitus Nucleus and Sonder Frontier/Dial, Salsa Rangefinder probably fit that category... but double/triple chainsets?

Re: More confused after research!
I'll chip in that I have the predecessor to the Deschutes as my solo shelter, also highly recommended.
Something like the Alpkit Tarpstar might also be worth a look.

Re: More confused after research!
Three of us were out in Friday's mega-deluge under my Aliexpress MLD Trailstar clone. It cost bugger all, fits into a 2l dry bag, only needs half a dozen pegs and a couple of poles. We stayed dry, could see the sunrise through the gap and can sit up under it so definitely not claustrophobic! 2023080...

Re: Long live the Mukluk
Not sure about the new name though. No, doesn't do much for me either. I've always felt that Heyday is something in the past, giving the impression the bike is no longer at its best! Agree, this is a bit like when they rebranded the "Journeyman" to "journeyer". I don't mind drop...
