From the same tw#ts who brought us their deeply unfunny and unoriginal version of The Rules. And at 35 quid its a hard-pass from me. At least they managed not to use the word "curate" amongst the annoying typographical layout.

I don't think so - Stefan said the routes bit wasn't used in the end?

Quite enjoyed the rules, thought they were quite light hearted and a good piss take

Edit - certainly wouldn’t be calling them twats either

RULES .......????? !!!!!! From pannierblahblah.cc? I remember the old skool road rules from the Velominati: Keepers of the Cog. https://www.velominati.com/ Still one of the most inspired and original chunks of cycling humour (yes, that is a thing) ever produced

Or is there a pack of twats making up rules for bikepacking? IIRC we have one rule and that will do: DON'T BE A DICK.
I'm just going outside ...

I know, it's incredibly bad taste! But This Place has gone really weird over the past few days for some reason (and yes I'm as guilty as anybody else!) so I just couldn't help myself there :oops: :grin:

Odd that what Pannier do could annoy someone. It's just a bikepacking site and business run by some creative people. Enough people enjoy what they do that they can make a living out of it, credit to them I say.

Pete, that's not obscure, Shirley? Or are we just old now? :grin:
