Yeah AA’s Eagle, would get two sets for the GPS if it was me. One will do it but I hate being unprepared or being left without everything working

Thanx mate,,,
Really nothing different than before setup on Nundle & Sunny Corner rides. Just added the bladder and wanted easy access on the fly to filler cap at rear of the seat.
If bladder is empty it`s an easy quick fill as per normal.

I reckon I might be able to leave bladder attached like in the pic, unfold it and fill it where it sits (carefully) to enable quicker fuel stops at the servo :whistle:

I will fill it on the way to St ALbans on friday, refill from it when I arrive and fold it back up till the next fuel stop on Day 1 etc etc

Lets Go Already :laugh:

So what sort of mileage does that give you with the bladder Eags?

That would be great TB. I went to buy one the other day but after the panniers decided against it for now.

I was going to strap a can on the back but a bladder would be handy.

Too right that Awsome loop by the sounds of it mate

Looks like there are a few guys that will have to split from Sunday`s route at some stage to make it back for work on Monday :dry:
Fully understandable but I am planing the full loop back to St Albans at this stage ,,,

Looks like I may have secured the swap of the RDO for Monday
