valleydaddy – it is about keeping weight off my back but there will so will use the wingnut on thiose occasions. I should be able to get about 6l on board.
The harness contains a spare set of riding kit, waterproofs, Finisterre Etibicoke jacket, bug net and some Patagonia leggings.
Frame bag water and maps plus tyre levers, puncture repair and first aid kits.
Rear bag has spare tube multi-tool, tent, sleeping bag and toiletries.
Tent is a Terra Nova laser photon I just bought in a sale and the bag is a Western Mountaineering one.
Wingnut will have a Thermarest neo-air mattress, plus personal items such as passport, camera, cash and food for on the go.
@Stuart – can the tortoise beat the hare again? He has already won Strathpuffer this year so he won’t be a sweating mass by the side of the trail after 20 miles! So looking forward to it.
