Oh *dawning noise* just a normal sort of spoon! :oops: I think people maybe thought you meant a 'teaspoon' tea spoon, ie just to take tea bags out and stir stuff! :cry: :lol:

"I was having a long chat over the weekend with someone who works for a very well known bicycle magazine and he assures me that 90% of the UK bike press and cyclists in general, have no interest in bikepacking and really don't 'get it' at all ... so perhaps it's no real surprise. What seems quite normal and maybe even everyday to us, is largely an unknown to the majority."

Thank goodness :)
The noise goes quiet when I'm on my bike :)
