Some sort of morning-after cure is a good idea, paracetemol etc. And a map, eh Mike?  |

Alka Seltzer
And personally if it's a stag weekend, rally weekend or just a weekend where I'm going to be drinking copious amounts I always take an empty plastic 2 litre water bottle. As soon as I arrive at my destination I fill it up and stick it next to wherever I'm sleeping.
When you wake up halfway through the night after numerous Beers/Lagers/Whatevers with a mouth like an arabs sandal you'll know that there is water readily available that's gonna last 'til morning so you don't have to fumble around looking for a bog/tap. And the 2 litres will also help you rehydrate yourself so you don't feel too bad in the following day - Works like a charm every time  ____________________ Mellow Yellow

Ahhhh thats it, i allways take a massive bottle of water with me on long rides, apparently caffine can work as a dilative if its cold, to tea coffie or coke will have you needing to pish constantly! not good 5 miles after joining the M6
I don't usually drink all that much, just one or two i think is the plan...... um.. yeh i will take some asprin um in case anyone else wants some...
Couple of big empty bottles too, very good idea  ____________________ >RidingSkills<->Tech Tips<->MyBikes< |

A cheap plastic jug....
..when its cold, you don't have to leave the tent. You can just pee in it and then empty it the next morning. Obviously you just throw it away at the end of the weekend.
I'm a girl (if it isn't obvious) and I struggle to squat when I'm half asleep. (too much information, ) |

Hi
When its hot you want a big garden pump action spray (usually used to water/spray pesticides the flowers).
Came as a great use at BDB ay G.
Seriously how the f**k do you get all that and a chair on a bike? Take a photo of it when your done .

As a seasoned rally goer, the essentials are:
Bike
Beer Tokens
That's all - everything else is just luxuries  ____________________ I spend all my money on bikes and beer, the rest I simply waste! |
