Almost all of us live busy lives, have other commitments, and have a limit to the funds with which to pursue the adventures we dream of. But there are so many adventures that can be accessible to us if we just get Out that Door and make a start. You don't need the latest and most fancy equipment, you don't need a huge bank balance, you don't need superhuman abilities and you don't need weeks of free time! There are so many adventures, not far from where you live, that require only the the most basic equipment and that may only take a few hours - the rewards of getting Out that Door are waiting for you! Equipment I use (note - it's all good quality gear, but in most cases not the most expensive option; fun doesn't need to be super expensive!): Bike: Trek Checkpoint ALR5 Head Unit/Cycling Computer: Garmin Edge 830 Hammock: DD Superlight Hammock Sleeping Bag: Decathlon Forclaz Trekking - MT900 10°C Underquilt: Alpkit Cloud Cover or DD Underblanket Bike Bags: Apidura Expedition range Tarp: DD Superlight Tarp (3m x 2.9m) or Superlight S (2.8m x 1.5m) Groundsheet: DD magic carpet – Regular Wood Stove: Bushcraft Essentials Bushbox XL Gas Stove: MSR Pocket Rocket Stove Kit Coffee maker: Aeropress Go Music: www.bensound.com
