      No, I would have used special waterproof paper and pen set, possibly like scuba divers use.

        Brilliant idea SY. You could even store them in your waterproof underpants!!

          Not sure if I am reading this right SY but does it not occur to you that just round a blind bend is not the best place to stop? Don't cycle anymore but sometimes have to run on narrow country roads as the footpaths don't always join up. Make darn sure I am always where I can be seen.

            How do you choose where you run out of puff?

              Seems to me that Suity wants to go out with the wrong clothes and little food. Coupled with their 'no directions' and travelling far from home there can only be one possible scenario Suity is hoping for.

              'Oh Dave we've cycled for hours, I'm tired, hungry, cold and wet and it's getting dark. Were going to get hypothermia and die. Boo hoo hoo. Oh hang on, I know! Look over there it's a deserted barn, well have to camp down there for the night and look for help in the morning. I'll have to take these wet clothes off! And you Dave, it will help us stay alive. Spoons could save both our lives.'

                By stopping before you are physically incapable of going any further.
