Marigold is bright peach
Written on Jul 19, 2017
These are ok sneaks, but the color is horrible. The color on the screen looked like a mustard yellow but what came was a bright orange puke peachy color. Returning them because I couldn't look down and see my feet this color. Why doesn't Solomon make better color combinations?

LuminAID PackLite 16 Inflatable Solar Light
Ever since we got this little light up pillow, we have used it everyday, and we haven't even gone camping again yet. I've kept it next to the bed as a little night light, I've brought it into the garden to do various chores after work now that its getting dark so early, I've attached it to the front of my bike and used it as a bike light, on flashing mode. I can't wait to go swimming with it. Everyone that sees it loves it and wants one. Riding 40 minutes to work with it clipped to my bike pannier is enough power to illuminate my 40 minute ride back home. Its also nice to support distribution of these in areas of the world that need it. So many reasons to love this little lamp.
Now we can cook dinner in one pot

Trangia Alum Cook Pot W/ Lid
On our last camping trip, we decided we had had enough of coordinating cooking one dish for two by juggling between the two small pots in the Trangia 27 set. We got this billy pot, so we can finally cook in one pot. The Trangia 27 fits right in this pot, but I ripped our orange Trangia 27 bag trying to shove it all in there. So while you are here, consider buying the orange bag for the larger Trangia 25 set, I'll bet this whole package fits in there just fine. Looking forward to future bikecamping trips and cooking loads of oatmeal and pasta! And the pot top fits on nice and secure too.

Nice but baggy

Carhartt Ripstop Cell Phone Pant - Mens
These pants are really nice, but they are bit baggy on my partner, but he is really quite slim. Maybe the cut isn't right for him. We got them on sale and it seems like they are tough and will last forever, even in the bike saddle everyday.

Trangia 27 Windshield Upper
Campsaver is our go-to place for everything Trangia. We were without cooking gas at home for 9 months and we used our Trangia a lot for cooking, with regular pots, including some quite heave heavy enamel pots and pans. Eventually the top tabs got bent out of shape - they were not made to handle these heavy pots. We tried binder clips and pliers to gerry-rig or bend them back, but finally bit the bullet and bought a new windscreen. I wish that Campsaver carried the HA upper/lower windscreen, we would have gotten that, but oh well. Here's to many more bike-camping trips and cooking with our beloved Trangia 27 set. [and no more gas outages!]
Great shoe for walking
Written on Sep 28, 2016
I got these on sale, but I like them better than the speedcross. They have regular laces, and a little mesh pocket on the tongue, I guess for money or keys. I am just wearing them all day walking and biking around, no running. They fit my custom orthotics perfectly, I have PTT and a fallen arch, and these provide plenty of stability and support. Unlike the other Solomon shoes, these are just two colors not those garish three and four combos. I don't even see the pink from my angle, just a lovely charcoal grey. These have mesh uppers, so they are in no way waterproof, my feet got soaked in a downpour, but they dried pretty quickly.
You'll need these, get them now

Trangia O-ring 2pk
Thank you to CampSaver for carrying so many Trangia supplies. Its the main reason I shop here. We discovered on our last camping trip that the O-Ring had somehow completely disappeared, but not before we lost most of the fuel we were carrying in it. Now we carry the extra with us, in case of another disappearance. Just get it now, because eventually you are going to need it and you'll be glad you already have it.
Nice knife

MSR Alpine Kitchen Knife
This isn't the lightest nor smallest knife in the world, but the sheath is very effective and therefore it's easy to slip down into an unused sliver of the bike pannier. Now there's no more stabbings while rustling around in the gear and encountering a forgotten knife. At present its the sharpest knife in our kitchen so we are using it a lot at home too.
Good for compressing, very tough

ALPS Mountaineering Compression Stuff Sack
I got the medium in a lovely burnt orange color. Its definitely not as light as the Sea to Summit e-Vent but seems much stronger and durable for a great price. The D rings make it work as luggage (supply your own shoulder strap), which, because it compresses, can be carry-on saving on the new reality of checked-luggage airline surcharges. But if you are looking for something very sleek and lightweight, this isn't it.

D Light D.light Solar Task Light
We've tried a few solar lights, this is definitely the best. Its a great size to fit in the bike pannier and to easily find in the tent. For us it lasted more than 4 hours at night and immediately after the sun comes up the green charging light goes on, even if you forget to put it in direct sun. I would love to have a diffuser/shade of some sort and an attachment for my bike handlebars, but I am sure we can easily rig something up.
