For the benefit of us kit geeks and one for those in the know....what kit is Steve using? Bike, tyres, lights, gloves etc, etc.
Also what is he carrying on a day to day basis in his Carradice? what 'emergency' kit is he lugging around (hopefully never to be used). Bivvy bag? that sort of thing.
Its a fantastic opportunity to see what lasts and what doesn't. If Steve wears it out in a month, I will know it would be suitable for at least 2 years for me!
