    I have the featherlight smock and h20 jackets, my fav bits of kit, so small and light to carry everywhere…

    I have large, the smock does flap a little, but the medium was way too tight…

    IT Consultancy…..its been slow, but ticking over slowly…..

    The major downside is that I have more time for riding… ;-)

    My old Mule and Nike MTB shoes….very old and worn, but still life in them yet…

    I had one when they first came out for about 4days, it certainly had the WOW factor, but I decided it wasnt for me and sent it back.

    A couple of months back I had my first Blackberry, love it!!

    But I think the novelty wears off everything eventually….apart from riding of course! ;-)

    Specialized make one, but mine was a 9mm as I had the same problem with the DT swiss.

    DT swiss didn't offer parts, but they kindly offered me a replacement for 50 quid! :-(

    I also kinda remember something on chain reaction, NC-17 or something ???

    I love that lavadome. I had a 98 version, sold it about 2 years ago…had yours been a smaller frame I might have been tempted… :-)

    Fresh air, exercise and a great love of it ! ;-)

    PS. Plus you get to act like a 6 year old and get away it (at the age of 36)

    Why not MTB ? A couple of reasons, I no longer have a road bike and I dont see the point in buying one for this trip. Plus you can take a MTB off road/road, but you cant with a road bike…plus I am more interested in doing it and not so much how. :-)

    anotherstan

    I am based in Bewdley, Worcestershire, not the best place to start as I am in the middle ;-) Are you thinking of having a go? ;-)

    Mr Nutt

    I too was thinking at least 15 days as I want to enjoy it and take it all in, so not worried so much about the time/destination….more the journey…

    AgentOrange

    Going to look at a couple of site today, someone else suggested the CTC site, cheers.

    The more I read, the more I want to do it…some of it just sounds too good to miss…

    Dont get me wrong I am sure it wil be a real tough one as I have never done anything close to this, the prep & training would be an experience for me…I just really want to do it…

    I will read up on some more…

    No specific dates yet…but September is in my mind….BUT I really want to do this either this year or next year….. and ideally with someone else as I think company on a trip like this would be a huge bonus/advantage…

    Like I say its all very open and just a thought in my head at the moment…would this be something you would be interested in MrNutt ?

    I am not time wasting on this and I mean this in the way that if anyone else was genuinely interested in doing such a trip, then count me in!

    I have just literally sat down in front of the PC, with no idea, no route, a good standard of fitness and not done anything close…

    So its all WIDE open… ;-)

    EDIT when you pay it takes you to a personal PayPal site of the guy who brings them in. I spoke to him on the mobile to check it is kosher. I'm keeping fingers crossed he was telling the truth

    Yes, that was one of my concerns, the site just doesn't feel right…let me know how you get on…

    I know its the same product (at over priced UK prices). But with a UK warranty and no 5 week waiting time.

    Lost contact with my sister, not spoken in years, she just decided one day to stop getting in touch and the rest is history.

    Her husband/family are a waste of time and energy, we were all glad to see the back of them….but life goes on and we all have our own lives to live…

    Sad in a way but hey ho…

    I love my MT500 jersey, Rebound jacket and Hummvee shorts, they have all lasted a long time, they have all been through a lot of abuse…

    I have 2 pairs of the Hummvee shorts and I agree the liners are rubbish!

    Mounty_73
    Full Member

    I think I will order both, try them and then send a pair back…

    Just wanted to see what people thought of them. I buy a lot of the Endura stuff as it fits me well and its good quality.

    Mounty_73

    Yes, I have the Hummvee in regular shorts and they are really comfortable to wear…been really pleased with them over the years…

    Never tried the singletrack shorts…
