Re: Bivvy a Month 2017.

Isle of Wight Bivi - 9/9 Seems to be a running theme in recent months, get to the end of the month and realise I haven't ticked off the bivi yet! Same again for September....with three or so different ideas in my head I settled on my first bivi over seas (well the Solent) on the island and Dan (sit ...

Re: Bivvy a Month 2017.

BAM 2017 - July 7 of 7 Running out of time in the month again, decided the best night would be after work's Burger social night. So a late start after a decidedly average burger from a supposedly 'Handmade' burger chain and a beer too many, I pedaled off into the night. I headed up to the same spot ...

Re: Dorset / Hampshire

Could always plan a route that goes back to the Poole area for the morning?

Loop out over the Purbecks, uptowards Wareham then a shortish run back to Poole in the morning?
Or Northish and back?

Having look at the maps there are options, what would work best for you?

Re: No Excuse November

Nice to have some reply's, thanks. I'm starting to explore some options, I have a shortlist in mind.... One option is simply a grid reference, no frills but a bivi spot with some weather protection. If numbers are there I can make it more fancy (not too fancy mind!!). I know the location and it's po...

BAM#6 Running out of days this month, dilemmas about routes, kit, explorer squares and the temperature. Resulted in a shorter than before, late out and early home route. Familiar trails close to home and out into untapped trails, got me down to a spot on the edge of the Solent. Watched what I think ...

No Excuse November

Yes, I know it's ages away and there will be plenty of excuses - "too far south" for starters, but I'm thinking of arranging a gathering location for a November bivi. Location: either New Forest or North Hampshire Date: 17/18/19th Nov. (Provisional) General idea is that the location will h...

Re: running out of idea's. handlebars/arthritis.

Have a look at the SQlab bars.

http://www.sq-lab.com/shop/en/handle-ba ... -31-8.html

A bit more sweep than a standard bar, but not to the extreme of a Jones.

Felt good riding them for the first time over the WRT.
