C'mon what did 'he' bring you?

Post by Bearbonesnorm »

Although it appears everyone on here had already bought their own presents long before, I'm sure some people must have had the odd interesting surprise.

I got one of these ... budget pack-rafting disaster here we come :-bd

Smellies, whisky, some sealskin socks and a base layer for me.

I second the idea of an official launch of Stu's boat. We could swing a packet of cous cous against the bow.

I got the explorer Hotpogs. Impressed the map pockets are on both sides. Hoping they should be enough with Sealskin Lobster gloves!

I get cold hands, even in the summer, so thought these would be best for me. Feel write thin, so hope they're warm. Wish they had the map pockets though as I can see they would be handy. Can't wait to use them now :grin:

Not strictly bikepacking as it doesn't fit the small and light classification, but still outdoors gear.
