My Gear

Gear I Use on the Bike and in the Bush

๐Ÿ“Œ UPDATED: 5/5/2026

Over the years Iโ€™ve used all sorts of gear… some good, some not so good, and some that just flat-out broke when I needed it most. This page is a list of the gear I actually use right now, stuff that works for me whether Iโ€™m riding, camping, or mucking around in the shed.

Iโ€™m not sponsored, and I donโ€™t push products. If itโ€™s here, itโ€™s because I use it and reckon itโ€™s worth sharing.

Final Thoughts

This list isnโ€™t about what you should buy, itโ€™s just what I use because it works for me. Iโ€™ll update it when I change things around or find something better. If thereโ€™s a product youโ€™ve seen me using thatโ€™s not listed here, let me know and Iโ€™ll add it.

I’ll keep adding to this as I go.
Cheers.. Mark
