Spares/Repairs/Recovery I’ve thought about this long and hard and the combination of EU location, duration of trip, limited mechanical knowledge and lack of space has lead me to the decision not to carry much on this front. If worst comes to worst I’ll have to ditch the bike and walk till I find so...

Haha, I guess its unanimous on the shovel then. Consider it gone.

This takes me nicely onto the next post...

Toolkit I’ll start with the toolkit because this is the most thought through. It needed to be since my mechanical experience is currently lacking. The toolkit has taken a while to put together. I think it strikes the right balance of being able to get myself out of basic/common scenarios whilst sti...

Spain Trans-Pyrenees Sept 2017 - Trip Planning and Ride Report I’ve got the ferry booked for 10th September from Plymouth to Santander and two and a bit weeks to explore the Spanish Pyrenees. I’m keen to do as much of the journey on trails/caminos/senderos as me and my bike are capable of. Despite ...

Not many reviews on the Thor Range Enduro pants to be found: - https://www.usdualsports.com/2014/06/review-thor-range-pants-from-jafrum.html - http://dualsportalchemy.com/2012/03/product-review-thor-range-pants-2/ Waterproof is a nice bonus but hopefully not at the cost of good ventilation. I guess ...

Anyone know if these Thor Adults Range Enduro Over The Boot Pants are any good: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Thor-Adults-R ... 2370353945

Revzilla on the face of it looked like the way to go. That is, until you factor in the 22.5% VAT and import duty. As I've never had the opportunity to try a pair on ordering from the US might turn out very expensive if I need to return it. I'll try and find somewhere in the UK that sells the moose r...

Can anyone recommend an alternative to the Klim Dakar Pants (over the boot)? I've been looking at getting some but my size of the old version seems to be out of stock everywhere and whilst the new version is now release Adventure Spec is quoting out of stock until 11th September. I'm heading to Spai...

Looks awesome. Is there a website that explains how one might get involved next time round? I'd love to have a go.
