While that's not a vast amount, considering how 'obscure' bikepacking is and that all 700 are genuine people, not spammers or bots, I don't think it's bad. Anyway, it has been decided that if the forum ever reaches 1000 members there will be a party, a proper one with music, ale and stuff ... I'm just hoping not everyone will want to come :shock:
750 and counting, :grin: .

If it's any use I have a 'mates rate' deal at a local brewery and can get barrels (72 pints) for around 85£ it's bright so doesn't need to settle. Just crack it open and drink :-)

Probably not wifi as it kills our data allowance but I'm sure we'll be able to keep all updated ... although I'm expecting him to be finished by July 2nd :wink:
