Equipment Providers.

We've already had some great help from people.

Please take a moment to check out our links, these are the people who have helped make this possible.

Steve at Cowley Cycles has not only supplied us with two fully equiped touring bikes but has fully trained us in mending puctures, although we still haven't figured how we're going to carry a bowl of water to find the bubbles!

Lyon equipment have provided us with all sorts of kit. Our favorite so far are the Exped downmats which I'm sure will prove to be invaluable bit of kit once we get out there.

ALPKIT have provided a PipeDream 600 sleeping bag, filled with 700+ fill goosedown and weighing only 1.0kg. This should be enough to keep even Sarah warm on the Altiplano.

Thanks very much.
