For those of you who are energetic adventurous types .. http://www.littlethings.com/stealth-camper/ Not for me though .. I only do flat ground and no wind on my bike. I'd need two though. One for me & one for SWMBO. Perhaps a double behind a tandem bike. I don't think so.

Wondering how the Peninsular road is after the recent rain? Staying at a caravan park where people are waiting to head up. We went up three weeks ago and were lucky but they have had heavy rain up there. Just wondering if anyone is on there way up? Kim

Hi Folks I would like to know if anyone has seen, or used, a jockey wheel receiver for a caravan dual jockey wheel. They are either made of plastic or rubber and the largest I have seen will suit a 8 - 10 inch jockey wheel. Would this be suitable for a dual wheel?. My dual wheel is 8 inches wide.

For the lucky nomads who live in their van full time, could you please tell me, do you need a fixed address for your drivers licence, electoral roll etc?. I might be lucky enough to talk my better half into going on the road full time before we are too old to enjoy the huge country!!!! Safe travels Darmc
