Maybe you and Bob should go together on the same bike. Between the two of you, you've got one decent set of limbs. :lol:

Have a great trip Phil, and don't forget to post up the pics...

I'd like to 2nd the total shitness of Annakee wilds - seems they wear out quicker than a race rep track tyre :evil:

I am lucky as I managed to find a Michelin T63 rear before they replaced them with the wilds :mrgreen:

Nearly packed and I have a first aid kit with me for when Phil decides to argue with a tree or some other removable object :lol:
