Today l purchased a set of Pannier Bags from Lidl at £9:99, not road tested yet but overall the quality seems very good, a 3 year guarantee is included. Thought I would post pre trial before they are sold out. A excellent everyday bag at very little cost.

Decathlon do a nicely designed covered bottle, I bought 2 around 3 years ago and paid £2:50 each.

With reference to the carrying of bikes on buses. I was last in Windermere 2 years ago and some bus routes allowe'd up to 4 bikes on board.

I have been riding on Schwalbe Marathon Tyres for around 3 years and ride regular along canal & riverside paths with hawthorn along them.Hope I'm not tempting fate but still puncture free.You should find some good prices on Amazon.

First post because I've only recently discovered the site. I recommended Baconsthorpe because I have stayed there many times in recent years and have always been welcomed by the owners.The site is the best I have found in Norfolk and by far the cheapest. The last time I backpacked the coast, 2 years ago, the site in Stiffkey, High Sands Creek, charged £12.

I would recommend Baconsthorpe Camp near Holt in Nth Norfolk. Plenty of facilities and you can even have a fire. Back/ Bike Packers are charged only £5 per night.Check out their website.
