Re:Panniers: Useful or a pain in the arse?

Jesse boxes stay on my 1150GS all the time - they're narrower than the bars so never cause a problem.

Always handy having the space to carry stuff you've bought but never thought you needed when you're out and about

Re:Are we all at risk of going deaf?

Used to use foam ones, but now I've got a set of custom monitors from Ultimate Ear.

Must admit though, if I'm riding locally I tend not to use any.

Subscribed threads

Never used this particular forum software before, but one thing is bugging me:

Is there a way to set your preferences so that you aren't automatically subscribed to a thread when you post?

It's certainly possible on other forum software, but I can't find an option here.

Re:Sleeping bag for touring

As you lose about 75% of your body heat through contact with the ground, your choice of mat is just as important (if not more so) than the sleeping bag.

Not cheap :ohmy:, but the Exped Down Mat's are the business - especially the Exped 9 Deluxe!
