3:24- What a waste of a perfectly good GCN bottle! I could have won that!! ;)
-
awesome channel. Thank you for the tips!
-
"tip to keep white bar tape clean get some gloves" seriously ha
-
Newspaper for drying shoes works for any type of shoes in any type of situation. As a Scout this was something I always had on me to keep my boots dry
-
better then papper in wet shoes are just paper towels or toilet paper. They better absorbing water then newspaper
-
Dans got skinny girly arms.
-
small suggestion: before wrapping the inner tube, put a cap on the valve
-
new to the road bike thing...the videos are the best...very helpful...cheers.
-
"Never ever ever put your shoes in the oven, as one of my "friends" found out..." Good catch, Matt, but I know that was you ;)
-
why cut the bottle for the spares just open it put spares in and close again
-
Hi Guys, have just come across GCN and think it is absolutely superbSo informative without having to seem a complete novice to all by asking lots of silly questions. Please keep the Vids coming< i am watching all of them! Also love the Wye Valley backdrop, beautiful bit of territory.

Re: #11: Gortex socks mean that you don't have to care if your shoes are wet. I use Sealskinz mid-length and they're fantastic!
-
I've learned a lot watching your videos, but never had I seen you recommend stealing rubber gloves from a gas (petrol?) station, and also, who knew Dan used to fold clothes for a living
-
I know you said not an oven, but what about a hotbox, not quite as hot as an oven, maybe about 170F (76-77C)??
-
instead of cutting the water bottle cant you just open it?
-
Some great ideas here. Another tip for drying out shoes is an old sock filled with cat litter (preferably un-used cat litter)
-
I've been packing my socks the same way Dan packed the arm/leg warmers all the time
-
i love matt's face reactions
-
did anybody else have to do a double take on the thumbnail.
