Dont let anyone tell you that you can't take a Falcon wagon up the Gibb River. It's corrugated and pretty sandy, but that's all. Its a few years since I was up there, but when I rode ...

255s for me
I love mine, and have just ordered a replacement pair. I have about 4-500miles on them, including a 50k and a 100k. The 100 included a fair bit of granite stones and rocks underfoot. My only bli...

Why avoid the herd?

Thanks Mike. Medium and large are same size
I would like to hear your impressions, as I may still be interested. Also worth noting that Exped list the medium and large as the same size quilt, with a different sized base sheet to accommoda...

Looks great but.....
Just be aware that Exped rate this as a 45 degree quilt, not a 23. That sounds about right for 14oz of fill on a 6' x7' quilt. Theoretical loft is about 1.9" http://www.exped.co...
