  1. Also the other camp a little up the road? They have a very nice big tent area/ frostpot area under trees
  2. Have you got freeboard at the clutch master pushrod/ booster pushrod? If the pushrod is slightly pushing on the master won't let new fluid into the system so when the clutch wears the pedal will go down. Also, grease your shaft, stop the spline wearing and the disc hanging up on the input shaft. Check measurements. I was thinking the release bearing is bottomed out on the nose cone, and still just touching the pressure plate fingers. That would cause the wear on the fingers
  3. Check the top loop on the pillar, gunk builds up on it under the belt
  4. The sleeping bag is a mountain warehouse unit and I rate it. Has its own compression sack and is cheap af Also mountain warehouse has cheap rain gear in their own tiny stuff sack cheap too
  5. This year guys can we try and be more self sufficient, carry all your own gear. Last year we ended up with so much gear in the support vehicles they were stacked to the roof! This year we just can't be doing that, they're going to need to travel light just to try and keep up with us. Plus I reckon it's more of an adventure if you can do it on your own. The support vehicles are there for breakdowns and bbqs, and imo we're very grateful to have them. Just to give you an idea, if you're not sure, this is the gear I took on the recce in April. That's 3 pairs undies, 4 pairs socks, thermal top and leggings, 2x long sleeve sports type shirts, 2x sports type t-shirts (one has some merino in it), Polar fleece jersey, jacket and pants rain gear, and a beanie. (Toothbrush not pictured)(also towel, I just remembered) And that all fits in a 30l dry bag easy (Last year I also had small cooker, gas canister, small pot, and freeze dry meals in there too) I'm obviously not including motorbike jacket and pants because I'll be wearing them, and some of those clothes ^ So that and 2 person tent and bedroll looks like this Backpack has camelback and snacks. I did have a tank bag but that was mostly tools, phone charger, and lunch but you won't be needing that. It can be warm in the valleys and cold up top on the ridges. I ended up wearing the thermals, long and short shirts, Polar fleece under bike gear, and rain pants over bike pants. (The bike pants I took were a cotton Kevlar cargo pants so not warm to begin with. And it was April, I don't know if that made a difference) I try avoid cotton t-shirts, they soak up sweat and will make you cold.
  6. Aah my bad for some reason I thought this was an 'other project'
  7. Replaced the worn spear on my right fork last night. Had exactly the right amount of shock oil for it.
