Bivi bags - persuade me....
I've camped out a lot over the years in a selection of lightweight tents. I've recently been using a Scarp and I'm really pleased at the weight, space and the flexibility of the pitching system. I also like the fact that I can zip it up and escape the midges ;-) However, there have been a few occasi...

I was going to add something to a previous post but there was no edit button. I'm guessing it disappears at some point. Is it timed or when there's a follow-up post?

Re: Who uses a rear rack, when bike packing?
Any weight imbalance problems can be minimised by strapping something on at the front of the bike too.

Re: Who uses a rear rack, when bike packing?
I've done a fair bit of mileage off road with a rack. I've never had one fail one and I do appreciate the lower CoG.
The only issue I've really had is that the width of panniers can be problematic through heather etc and through narrow gates.

Re: The post man's been ...
I've got a Dakota 20. Mostly it works fine :-) Just taken delivery of a new bike light. SportPursuit were doing a deal on a "1600" Lumen thing that looks much like one of the MagicShines. It's been a few years since I bought a proper powerful light for night riding and I've already got som...

I was sure after the last one that it would be the 29er and the summer sleeping bag for March. It's looking like the fatbike and the winter bag again!!

Re: Anyone using a synthetic bag?
I've used down bags for years and recently experimented with synthetic. I got a Mountain Hardware Lamina as an option for "no tent" sleeping and it's actually very good for its weight and bulk, so much so that I acquired a warmer version and have been using it this winter. It's been warm e...

Re: brake hose / bar bag interfaces
In all of those examples, the banjo end is for attaching to the caliper. The tapered fitting is the one that fits into the lever, with an olive. I've looked at the Goodridge fittings (I've actually used them a couple of times) and there seems to be no way to make it work.

Re: brake hose / bar bag interfaces
Not just me then...... The foam spacers supplied by Revelate with the Sweet Roll do help a little but it's still not ideal. I looked for an alternative (90 degree) fitting for my XT levers (775 style) - and didn't find anything suitable. My options list so far looks like this. a) Hope brakes - no pr...

Re: What do you do when you're alone? (no not that)
Kindle reader on the smartphone if I'm in the mood. Never music. Mostly I just eat, drink and sleep. I've found that a little walk after "dinner" eases the muscles up a bit and makes the next day easier. That's very weather dependent though. If it's pissing it down or completely midged I j...
