Hi, I am doing the pedal north C2C this summer:

[url= http://www.pedalnorth.com/content/mtb-c2c ]c2c route[/url]

Staying in bnb and yha, so don't need camping equipment.

What are people's tips? Thinking use my normal summer tyres - Hans Dampf and Nobby nic.

Taking a hydopack, frame bag and saddle bag. Any thoughts on frame bag and saddlebags? Thinking amplitude for the former.

Alex

If you are getting the train to Ravenglass avoid any Sellafield shify change ones ๐Ÿ™‚

Bar bag rather than frame bag - makes carrying easier. Alpkit.
