Hoipoloi - West Midlands (north)

Post by Hoipoloi »

Hello everyone, my main prep is for INCH and my self-build motor caravan will suit most needs but I'm mainly concentrating on cycle prepping now. There doesn't seem to be much interest in using the trusty pedal bike for travel when needs must.
I'll share some pics and info as time goes by.
Meanwhile, here's a pic of my Muddy Fox:

My prepping consists of bugging out by bicycle so any comments are likely to be based on that scenario.

Hello and welcome. Sturdy looking rig you have there. You sure can carry a load over distance pn a bicycle. If you had to leave home in an INCH situation, what would cause you to do so?
In three words I can sum up everything I have learned about life: It goes on.

When it comes to push bikes, there's not much you can't fix with a set of spanners and a puncture kit.

Get stuck in. There's a lot of knowledgeable people here, although i'm positive you'll have your fair share to contribute too.

Plague, rioting, lawlessness, flooding, marriage breakdown, homelessness, mental breakdown, who cares as long as you're ready.
