Re: Bivvy a month 2022
It was such a beautiful day yesterday i decided that a solstice bivvy was in order and as I can see the top of Midsummer Hill from home it seemed like the obvious place to go even though Midsummer isn't until Friday . https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52163150541_285b00d90f_z.jpg PXL_20220621_0235...

Re: Any Malverns MTB specialists?
I have had a look at the route Shaf the tracks to the North were pretty horsed last time I rode them also they will be fairly unpleasant in wet conditions as the mud is clingy .The track on the other side of Raggedstone hill is much better than the one you have shown . The tracks to the southern end...

Re: Bivvy a month 2022

It was pretty good and surprisingly rideable a few boggy sections towards the end following the Motorbike tracks out to Hengwy...

Re: Bivvy a month 2022
I made an executive decision last Monday night that due to the weather being so good a couple of days on the bike was a far more attractive proposition than work with I worked out a route from home to Hopton woods and then back through Bringewood near Ludlow . I had to wait around for a dental appoi...

Re: Sea to Summit Aeros repair
Thanks everyone I will get an Exped I like the idea of being able to repair it should the need arise I put the pillow in a buff or similar to keep them clean so the surface doesn't matter .
Any ideas how to upcycle a non inflatable inflatable pillow ?

1/12 I had intended to have a night or two out in Wales over the weekend unfortunately my back decided to intervene so I will have to use the W E night instead .

Hi Reg,
I wasn't aware you needed to keep the filter wet I just reactivate it when I swill the bottle out after it has been stored for a while .

Re: Bargain Alert Thread
I was about to say the same thing as Stu it is definitely harder to squeeze than a standard bottle but it takes me considerably less effort and time to get 500!l of water from the bottle than when using my Trailshot. I spoke to them about filter life and was told the time limit is with everyday use ...
