What to Bring

[Shellywoozle]

bring some music CD's of your taste

CD's?? What are CD's??

Ah, it seems CD's are something people used to use in the prehistoric ages before MP3 players

I am a dinosaur as I am being forced to take my dinosaur music machine. Saying that I did say I would take my MP3 player and speakers but I was told the speakers were too small

In case no one's mentioned these yet (can't be bothered to trawl through!)

Puncture kit if you've got one
Map of Wales in case you get lost
Phone (or the charger will be pretty darned useless )
Wallet
Flipflops for the showers...
Swimming shorts?!

what would you carry as an emergency tool kit for the bike? I've not got the original one with mine...

Suggestions please?

edit: Possibly wise to bring a spare visor for your lid if you have one

Further to this, OdourEaters spray if you've got it. I like to go shopping and for lunch and such on my way into work which can mean I spend more times in my bike boots than is good, and giving them a spray before I leave home and then again when I get home prevents them becoming minging.

Bear in mind that you'll be stuck in your tent, you don't want to be gassed by the green clouds coming from your boots.

My toolkit for bike looks something like this:
8,10,12,14,17mm Spanners / socket
Puncture repair kit
Screwdrivers (Ph #2, PH#3 & Flat head)
Spare Brake & clutch levers if possible
Gaffa/Duct tape & cable ties
4,5,6mm allen keys
Pliers / Mole grips
Latex gloves (You always have a problem with the dirtiest part of the bike)

That aside:
Side-stand puck (Though I believe Messie's bringing a few spares)
Tent
Sleeping Bag
Torch (with extra batteries)
Wallet
Phone that'll last the whole weekend / some method of charging in a field, there will NOT be 200 wall sockets...
Deoderant
T-shirts, socks & underwear
Chain lube
Camera

That should pretty much sort it

140 of them delivered last week end lol!

I've got the standard toolkit on the bike, but there's little point as I wouldn't know what to do with half of it.


Note to self - make sure breakdown/recovery insurance is up to date!

if i have room i'll throw my toolbox in the car just incase we need more than the OE tool kit.
