I've bought a pushbike, now cycling to work to increase stamina and general health levels, BOV is literally 4 mins away by bike if i really go for it, i reckon i could still bug out in under 20mins should the need arise.
before any smarty pants says anything i'm not cycling DIRECTLY home every night
4 mins isnt even enough to get a sweat on!
in some cases, those with the least to say, say the most.....

its actually a road bike, not intending to use it as a BOV.
its a carrera zelos, bought from halfrauds. was on special and seemed decent spec for the price.
i can also add to my preps a PAYG 3g dongle, which i am currently using to access the forum, whilst powering laptop from a 12v inverter
its techinically a communication prep, it'll be in the ol' BOV permamntely with my laptop and 300w inverter. works well too!

sorted all the stuff from my old camo backpack into my new Alice pack, put all the food into an olive over shoulder pack and some bits and pieces into pouches on a seperate alice belt-just waiting for the 2 final pouches to arrive in the post.

Bought some more tins and another couple of kg of porridge oats.
Find a resilient place and way to live, then sit back and watch a momentous period in history unfold.
