Re: No more Stealth tents
Not too quick. It was going to be from the kids for Father's Day but I wasn't expecting it in time for then anyway. I would want it by the BB200 at the latest but need to get out and learn the craft before then, it's a long time since I was a boy scout...

No more Stealth tents
There was I, just about to buy a Trekkertent Stealth and they have stopped making them. Shows not to dither. Would I have been better off buying the Drift in any case?
All this stuff is new to me, so any suggestions as to an alternative gratefully received.

Re: BB200 - Who's entered
After a year or so of watching these events come and go, I'm in for my first ever such outing.
Having walked the dogs (or tried to) through last years tussock ordeal, at least I know something of what to expect.

Re: GPS basics
Okay thanks, I'll try talkytoaster. I've got a lot of OS already on Viewranger - I'll just have a sneaky peak on there every now and then to satisfy that particular fix. I take it if you plan your track and load it onto the GPS you can then follow it along and record progress for the dreaded Strava ...

GPS basics
Well, I've finally got round to acquiring a GPS device (etrex 30.) I've never had a GPS before and so despite hitting Youtube tutorials aplenty, I'm still unsure. I normally use Viewranger on my phone but now I'm travelling longer distances, I've bitten the bullet and gone GPS. First hurdle - I've t...

I fill a balloon with steam and tie it to my seatpost which also makes the bike lighter.

Re: BB200 2014 - congratulations and thank you
Looking at the route I see that one of the tussock slogs is where I sometimes take the dogs. You poor, poor buggers.
Even my dogs hate me afterwards, so well done everyone.

Re: BB Jersey
Calling Re8elDog - Your shirt looks very nice indeed - I haven't tried it on so I don't know how well it will fit you. If you PM me your address - I'll send it on but I'm just off to Snowdonia for a week and will send it when I return. Whoever has got mine, could they PM me and I'll pass my address ...

I'd be interested - wild night's out are a long distant memory for me so prefer without.
