Put all your camping touring toolset recommendations and queries in here...

It's not to keep the other threads tidy, it is to collate all this good info in one place.


I'll start....

Tesco Panniers are shite.
 
Halfords roll top waterproof panniers are no bad. Well cheaper than Ortliebs or Vaude and have lasted me for years. Might need a wee bit extra securing if your off road touring ;)

Bivvy tents are great if you spend some cash and are very light, nae use for romantic interludes with a significant other though. I recommend Terra Nova for top quality lightweight tents ;)
 
panniers pah do a radow and use a 110 litre rucksack!

self inflating roll mat would be on my list as well as a sticker that says "Iain is a ****".
 
Who was it posted "Bicycle Repair Kat" on a previous 'what to carry' thread??
Ye definitely need one of them!

Trangia- I find the wee kettle very civilised........ :p

Carry the fuel in a Sigg bottle on yer frame, whole thing packs into the outer casing.........I dare say ye could run them on most flammable spirits if ye were pushed.
 
.....oh - cable ties and a spoke key BTW :twisted:


.....and a toothbrush "in case we encounter any totty"


:p
