Bike
Petrol
Beer


On serious note make sure all the crap is with your tent (pegs, poles etc), that it's not gone mouldy cos you forgot to dry it after the last time it was used and that you still remember how to pitch it.
Same with your sleeping bag, air it out a bit, make sure it doesn't stink of a year old hangover.
If using a thermarest make sure it still holds air cos of sticking a bungee hook through it during the aforementioned hangover.

Nearest town is a toss-up between Ingleton and Settle - although we're nearly in Austwick, it is a small village as far as facilities go.

You only staying the one night then mate

mmmm, i also had plumbed for the aberlour after petes request for not peaty, however i may have to select another, cant be doing duplicates now. Do we need to start a thread of those bring malts so we dont double up?

Just to add to DT's list, Recovery. Remember folks its your responsibility to get yourself home if you breakdown, not the AR organisers.
