Kit list revision

Polaris Challenge Forum: Forum: Kit list revision

I see that the kit list is to be revised. When will this happen? What's changing? I've always thought that the clothing requirements are too stringent: full leg cover and waterproof bottoms for example. Although a lot of riders seem to dress like ramblers for these events, I would choose to wear full length tights only in the coldest of weather, and would normally wear 3/4 lengths.
Like Rohan uplanders, these can get wet and dry again in the course of the day. If it becomes a survival issue, we always have the survival bag to climb into.

You do allow room for personal preferences in the upper body clothing, so I hope that this will extend to the legs.

And the torch; do we really need one if we've got an LED light?

this is old chat not even worth a reply other than to say the rules will be on the new entry form that will be posted next week. Web site will also be updated to.
A LED light is a torch isn't it?

Cheers for trying. I'm new to this forum and too lazy to scan all the threads.
