Re: Retro MTB Touring.
In was all set for another Trangia stove, but the Fuel4 kit is very light and mechanically very simple, so it got my vote.
The mess tins are just run of the mill alloy jobs, albeit light ones.
So far I got...
Bike - Saracen Rufftrax fully kitted out for adventure touring, with Shimmy hub dynamo. Just awaiting the parts to convert the rear hub to QR for the trailer fittings.
Single wheel touring trailer - can't remember the make but was cheap, didn't attract many bids.
2 berth tent - nothing exciting, about 6 year old It's done Shetland, Iceland and Dartmoor with me, plus rubber mallet.
Sleeping bags - make is long and lost in the distance past but they pack down quite small and Don t weigh much.
Foam bed rolls.
Cooking gear and stove.
Basic tools and first aid kit.
Spare cable inners.
Plan is to carry as much load as I can so Woman isn't physically stressed too much cos of her MS. I'm accustomed to hauling a lot solo touring or lugging the kiddie trailer, so no great drama. Tent, bags, bed rolls, water carrier in the trailer, cooking gear, tools, 1st aid kit and grub/drinks in my panniers, a minimal change of clothes for woman to carry on her back.
