The gear shed struck me as a practical idea, maybe a bit niche, but a workable idea.
ahem.... not being kinky or nuthing :)
gear lofts, bit like a suspender belt in attachment, you could raid someones knicker draw (or washing line)
i looked at them too and the costing of doing a ghetto fix with ladies undergarment bits :)
Pretty much regeared myself now, taken a few years as a bit old school in thought and kit. Major benefit was regualr trips to Fort William and all the gear shops there. And online surfing for bits and pieces. Think bulk of it was from Field & Trek and some instore from Sport Direct, some from independent stores Nevis range and backpackinglight, cotswold camping, Taunton leisure, and managed to vist Alpkit too, i can run a 42ltr pack and be unsupported for 3+ days as a walker. Just need to translate the packing from a single pack to spread around a bike now.
Been eyeing up the overnight train from Euston to Fort William, hope too try it as a walker this year and bike it next year when i get the Surly actually built up with gears and disc brakes for some off road touring action and not going anywhere near the Highland Traill 500 :)
