Might be worth research feed stops in advance and knowing the possibilities.
Carrying 5 days of food will be annoying!

Yeah, I was half joking. I have already started poring over maps, and looking into stores/pubs/hotels that could offer food/warmth.
I was ridiculously well organised for Tour Divide, I had a cue sheet with a section for each town, and what was available, and how far to the next town/store/water/etc. I am sure to be just as OCD for this race, if not more so.

Thanks!
Yep, it's official, I'm on for HTR550, and wow, the start list is brutal, some super strong riders in there with a lot of experience. I've got my work cut out for me, and being vegan in scotland is going to be fun.
Reckon I can carry 5 days of food? Probably. My main tactic is to not talk to anyone Scottish on the whole race (except other racers). That way, I don't stop in towns unless absolutely necessary.
