Ignore what ID say about setting it up with one pole ... it will, but two poles transform the thing. If you're interested there's a review type thing here:

No trouble Jase, I was almost tempted to pick up a 'spare' for that price.

ID do make an inner but it's pretty heavy and packs bigger than the outer.

Just be careful with those mountain warehouse bivvy bags as a friend brought one and had to tip out the water in the morning. Looked like he had a accident in the night. :lol:
Put him off bivving for the forseeable future .

I got on there to browse the free tickets. It's a limited selection of (I'm guessing) less popular destinations. Not so much on the west coast but as far north as Thurso was on. Not that you can much further north mind.

Very limited indeed, after selecting your station of departure your choice of destination is limited even further.

Just looked at this link to Wiggle and it's full price to this potential customer. After my last Gore soft-shell jacket fell apart, and they failed to honour the warranty, it would have to be at least 75% off to get me buying!

One for the Manchester crowd, Howies are having their annual clearance event at Friends Meeting House. Starts today for 3 days (from experience, I'd get there on day one)

Blackburn adjustable entry bottle cage £6.49 delivered
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Blackburn-Sider ... 009IIJ76S/

A bit of creative bending and some velcro and it makes a pretty solid 'Anything cage' substitute for lightweight stuff.
Bonus: adjustable angle.
