Episode 12 - Extreme Wild

Monday 19 October

This week Ortis and Jason go head to head in a full-on Extreme Wild Challenge! The challenge is a straight, hell for leather race across Derbyshire, with different sections for testing personal transport, GPS devices, and tents with in-tent entertainment. It climaxes with a flat-out race for the chequered flag between Ortis on a state of the art road bike and Jason the on lightest, carbon fibre, off-road bike he can get his hands on. With thanks to all these guys who helped make it happen -

I liked the LED Lenser, but they didn't have a portable ambient light for the whole tent. I found this Solar/AC/Car charged lantern called Glowstar by Sollatek that does the trick, very handy for outdoor/camping. See this PP presentation: http://www.sollatek.com/pdf/Poster/Glowstar%20Feb%202009.pps
