I’m new pass class 1 I start tramping next week what essentials would everyone say I need to get/take with me?
Do a search on here…You will need just about everything you can think of…
There is a lot of good advice here
Rule of thumb for me is take what you think what you might need, then if you don’t use it after a month, stop taking it. Exception to this is a tool kit, I didn’t bother with mine one week, and a mudguard broke on me. Cost me the thick end of a tenner to buy stuff I’d already got sat in the boot of my car.
I don’t give a monkeys if I’m the laughing stock at our place, I carry what I like, and at the end of my shift, bar my spare bottle of screenwash, I take it all out again, but at least if someone gets stuck out in my motor on a day when I need it, I know a) that they’re not using my stuff (I’d flip if I thought someone had touched my bedding) and b) I’m guaranteed all my creature comforts, electric stuff, chargers etc, even cutlery and the like.
I leave cheapo cleaning stuff in, few cloths, polish, air freshener etc, in the vain hope that someone one day might use them to return the unit to the state they found it in. But these are not my top notch Autoglym products, these are the ones readily available from the bogs at most of your drops [emoji6]
A bloody good pillow and plenty of tissue.
