Just weighing up the options for going to Dent in May.
At the moment, my bike is devoid of panniers or mounts, -
The daft pillock who ordered my bike or owners after him / her, decided to sell the panniers on!
so if i want to take lots of stuff to Dent, im looking at replacing the lot.
Ive aquired the mounting rails, but still looking at a £250 odd bill for SH panniers...
Which got me thinking... do i really need panniers ??
Ive seen that you can get backpack tents,
so was trying to see if i could get everything into a backpack and do it that way.
My plan is to travel light and lean (lol)
If i can, i'm aiming to get a tent & sleeping bag into a back pack along with a couple of changes of clothes.
Is there anything else that is a must have ... food wise i think i may get away with eating onsite or local nosheries
or should i get the panniers and done with?
