Went to tent exhibition with daughter who wanted a canvas mansion to take the kids away; saw an £80 tent for £18 and bought it.
Definitely need advice on getting lightweight tent pegs - they weigh more than the rest of the tent equipment put together; then what about light, effective sleeping bag; best panniers; are those waterproof sacks worth having?
I'm thinking of getting one of those lightweight racks - max capacity 25kg - is that too optimistic for a few days - 1 week jaunt?
Just when you think you're mature, you go and do something like this.
