I am with pyro and mountainbaker, life is too short to barter

A fine example of Strava art, that must have took some planning

Good to see Marmite Cashews on the menu

How much worse than a winter in Scotland can it be

If you are interested drop Jonathan Kennett an email and ask him to put your name on the list for up to date information as they have mentioned only taking 100 people and I think it will be over subscribed.

Ian,

I have a sleeping bag you can borrow that will do the job.

I haven't seen anyone mention the Tour Aotearoa on the forum and after lots of surfing I think
this might be the next project for me after the TD.
The first running of this end to end race of New Zealand is planned for 2016 and it looks pretty special

I went to see the European Outdoor Film Tour 2013 at the Royal Geographical Society in London and it was really good. Eight short films on a range of different adventure sports which are very well put together. Take a look at the trailer for this years Tour, looks pretty good :wink: http://www.eoft....

The fun starts at 10am

Managing to get some good miles in despite the weather, Whitefish Pass and Richmond had over three miles of hike a bike due to snow, avalanche debris and fallen trees. The rain today was biblical on the way to Holland Lake today,seven hours of proper Welsh rain and you all know what that's like. Qui...

I found online the little gem about four batteries in line etc. perhaps that is the problem.
Thanks.

The Hope works with "normal" batteries and I have tried two different packs of the new lithium batteries purchased off flebay and neither lot worked, the lithium batteries do seem very light.

Has anyone had any problems with Energizer Ultimate Lithium Batteries ?
Brand new out a packet they won't power my Hope Vision light but do work OK in
my Garmin Dakota

Thanks to Stu, Dee and everyone I met this weekend, thoroughly enjoyed it
Great riding companions, fantastic weather and such nice smiley people
