Bikepacking mistakes you’ve made

[TheBrownDog]

Letting Reg do the route plotting.
Booking a poncy Chilterns pub for dinner at a winter event for 16 starving bikepackers
Letting MuddyPete and Rich3rd dictate the speed of drinking

[RIP]

Triple whammy!

The only other real one was sending the same volunteer into every pub in town to get a table. And we chose the chap wearing two pandas on his head.

Yeah, well they were hungry too poor things!

Choosing a waterproof based on its weight and/or packed size rather than the ability to keep you dry

When making a net tent to go under a tarp, laying the netting out on the lounge floor, marking the panels with blue dress-makers chalk and being impressed with how well it shows up on the net only to notice the blue lines are on the carpet under the netting luckily it hoovers off or this would be my last post before Jane buried my remains under the patio

Another cracker there Sean . Lucky you weren't using a marker pen...

I forgot to pack my gas canister on Sunday. I put it down to the fact I used a different pan set so my routine was 'changed'. Anyways, thanks to JC and Allen for loaning me some gas.
