    plumber – Head Torch (good point, now added to the list)

    Tiger6791 – I dont trust leaving my bike with out a lock, and for the extra weight i will be saving i will be better to put clean dry cloths on 🙂

    Where you gonna Bivi? Moss Side?

    Average bike thief chat:
    Chav scum 1: "Shall we go nick some bike 'night mate? for Crack fix money"
    Chav scum 2: "yah, bustin' lets go round local gardens in Meanwood and look in sheds and sh!t"
    Chav scum 1: "Nah, lets go get our gators and boots, get t'train to Skipton, Change onto Settle line then walk to top to top of Malham Tarn and rob one off the bivvy'ing types"
    Chav scum 2: "wicked! good plan CS1"

    Oh and nearly forgot but you need a Hip Flask! (it's the law)

    Shotgun – you'll need some personal protection.

    Condoms. Again, you'll need some personal protection.

    That'll never fit into a 30l, more like 50l depending on size of your sleeping bag.
