Re: How many people pack a first aid kit?

always a basic one -

antiseptic wipes, plasters various, a dressing, resusitation face mask!

anything else can be fixed with gaffer tape, zip ties and my spare inner tube

Re: Weigh-in List ... IS HERE

Would be interesting to know how many of the light guys where just eating out. I was @ 49.5 with all my food for the 3 days apart from a child's portion of beans on toast I had as 2nd breakfast on Sunday. I returned with about 300g of snacks I didn't eat. Having decided to go for a tent I suspect I ...

Re: Salsa Minimalist Rack recall

I suppose if you have the rack front mounted with that strap and it breaks then you get quite a decent over the bars incident! Wonder why they don't just send stronger straps out to eveyone though

Salsa Minimalist Rack recall

http://salsacycles.com/culture/salsa_mi ... ry_recall/

Am I reading this right it's just the extra metal bracket that has broken a couple of times?

Should I buy one quick before they have to take them off the market?

Re: 1 man tents?

cheers, the red one is a bit red though!

not so keen on the single skin, was hoping to leave the door open and just have the mesh if its not raining

suppose it depends what I would have to spend on poles to convert the Gelert as to whether its still a bargain, will have a look about some more

1 man tents?

So after the weekend I have decided I want a small light 1 man tent! Don't really care how small it is to sleep in as I am not tall and it will still be a palace compared to a bivi bag. Considering a Gelert solo and swapping out the poles for alu and maybe swapping the guys and pegs for lighter stuf...
