This will be my first ever end to end and first big ride in this sort of event, what are the essential things to take with me? Obviously a couple of tubes but what else do you guys take?
thanks in advance

They've got the new boardwalk down from the top of the sloc now, so that's not too bad. The rest of it apart from Arrasey drains pretty well too and the bit down through the fields into Port Erin is not too bad because it's quite deep grass so the ground tends to be pretty firm. I'd not be getting Mud tyres just for that 2mile section linking the sloc up with the fields.0
