On a previous purchase I was sent a couple of these with the tarp.

Ain't got a clue what it is. You'll know, I'm sure.

Tried on - never used Endura top in medium - If you want it - PM me your address.

After a poor show last year, nearly got caught out again.

In the heart of Sherwoode, well away from the Merrie Men.

Can concur with others that a 3 season bag with a Cumulus 150 quilt is plenty warm enough at -7.

It does go to photobucket but other than the first image, the rest wouldn't load - for me anyway.

No issues with mine - Would like a more garish design next time.

Hi Box, I'm not sure to be honest. Maybe all my ancestors being Derbyshire miners (including the women and children too probably!) has caused a filtering down via the genes, giving me an interest in the 'extractive industries' and holes in the ground generally (dunno if genes can transmit 'interest...

Thinking of getting one of these for my Broken Road when it lands - Anyone had experience of them?

Thanks folks - I've managed without for years but having one offered made me ponder - Think I'll save the cash and spend it on goin' swimmin' with bowlegged wimmin instead.

I've never had a bike with a dropper post - The bike I'm getting in Feb has a dropper post option - Is there any worth in having one for bike-packing duties?

I've got that one - Love it. Enjoy.

I've had issues with Imgur with Bob's first suggestion but never any issues with the second method.

As I understand it, your body needs water to process food and so it would make sense that if you eat less, you'll need to drink less.

If I'm wrong, blame Ray Mears.

Fill the book I'm writing with more content than I am currently filling my belly with.

Work in 2018 meant I had time to concentrate on family all year and so got very little done on the two wheel front - Now 2019 will not have the same constraints so WRT and BB200 for sure and possibly that Hungarian ride Stu posted today. Other than that BAM and just pointing the bike anywhere betwee...

We go to Budapest every year - Might have a sniff at this - Might even have an apartment over there by then - *Wanders off to brush up on his magyar*

Got some nice stuff - Highlight being an hour in a Vulcan simulator. Amongst the gifts I got Mrs Mac (Shari) was my reworking of "My Cherie Amour" by Stevie Wonder to "My Shari Amour" with yours truly providing the vocals. After twenty five takes, I realised it was never going to...

Thanks Rob - I'm embarking on belly reduction before Christmas - What's that about?

Ouch - That's not good.

Adapt and overcome - We can't be deprived of that cheeky grin.

Today I became a pensioner

Time to catch up on all the riding I missed by being beasted at work for the past year.

Oh Sh1t got some hammer in my teen years when I broke up with some young love. Thought I was the height of sophistication playing Automony.

Even nowadays when my ears are usually being reamed out by hyper-blast black noise I still occasionally youtube Harmony in my Head.

Mrs Mac's dad died when she was quite young - There has been a gap in the family history about him during the years of the Second World War. Daughter has been spending a lot of time trying to find out where he was - She found out this week that he was an Auschwitz survivor - Even though he has been ...

Monkey clip and monkey cage - Works well.

I slip a 1.5 litre pop bottle over it if there is too much mire.

Very good indeed. I'd be worried by the sniper sights ranging on the young fella though

First time I learned that weight matters.

Looking at Landslide's post, I reckon BearBoners will be as identifiable by Outdry jackets as much as the BB shirts.
