Off to camp again
Tomorrow afternoon off to the 'Back To Basics' camp but a much shorter journey than last time.
Thought I'd try a different tack with packing this time and put the 55ltr capacity bag on the front of the sissy seat resting on the pillion.
All of the stuff on the back, tent, camping chair, bed roll and camp bed, sleeping bag and bike cover are all on the small luggage rack but secure with 2 x ratchet webbing belts that also go over the sissy seat back rest. The bungee cords are only holding the bike cover and sleeping bag in place.
It's only Friday and Saturday nights but should be a good weekend, and it's only to Coleford so 45 minutes each way rather than the 4 hour each way ride to Waterbeach in July (which was a thoroughly enjoyable ride though).
Friday evening will be a 'Pull up a sandbag' evening around a fire with stories and banter. Saturday evening the local hostelry (pub) are putting on a live band and buffet for us (there'll be 50 of us bikers).
During the day on Saturday I'll be going on a hike to Symonds Yat which is a 1.25 hour walk each way so at least I'll get some exercise as well!
Blips will probably have to be 'backed' on Sunday so see you then.
