He lives in Perthshire in Scotland, so mostly around there and then trips a bit further around Scotland.

Thanks for all the suggestions folks, loads for us to dig through. Those bikepacking.com links are great.

I had a Surly midnight special that took a 650x2.25 mtb tyre. It was brilliant fun.

And now I have a Cinelli King Zydeco. Also great but I think the 650x2.0 tyres fitted are as wide as I'd want to go on it. The 2.25" tyres did fit, but with fag paper clearance that wouldn't have worked in UK conditions.
