Saddle, tyres and bags turned up in time and I just about managed to get myself sorted. Tent, roll matt and sleeping bag all fit in the bar bag. Thankfully the 35mm tyres fit and worked out great despite have the skinniest tyres there by some margin. The Grinduro course was soo good even with a lot of comments about it being an MTB course. My days of hardtailing and BMXing paid off and none of my chinese carbon exploded. It was my first organised bike event as well as any kind of bike packing and it was an all round success despite Avanti west coasts cock up with bike reservations. The first of many more. Some seriously potato photos as I havent got my film developed as of yet and thats my main go to for snaps.
