A tranq. shot takes a while to take effect....15-20 mins IIRC (depending on the compound used). During the last few minutes before a subject "goes under" there's a period when the animal will react VERY unpredictably as ...

Re: Experienced travellers

I'm just looking through everyone's advice here and it is great, love the idea of having old undies and then just throwing them away as you go. Great idea.

Kwacky have a Fab trip please take some pics for us [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]

Re: Experienced travellers

You need waterproof gloves mate.

If you get wet gloves it could ruin the trip. If you don't have space for spares take some of the latex surgeons gloves to wear under your summer gloves if it rains.

... The toiletries and the medical kit are in the us10 which I've attached to the rear seat, Blade style. Only thing I've not decided on is whether i take spare gloves and visor. I'll make my mind up tomorrow when I see what the weather is doing. Thank you everyone for your help, it's appreciated. ...

Re: Dead Gorilla

I think the zoo had a tough choice to make, but shooting it was probably right. A tranquiliser can take time to kick in and the gorilla could have reacted badly and ended up hurting the lad. Absolutely spot-on assessment. A tranq. can take up to 20 minutes (IIRC) to render ...

Re: Experienced travellers

... underwear and couple of pairs of socks. One lightweight jacket/hoodie/fleece for wearing in evening.. Washbag. Shoes are the biggest pain as they take up so much space. Plus point of taking waterproofs is they can be used as a raincoat if required. Don't forget phone charger and plug adaptor. ...

Re: Experienced travellers

I did have a large tank bag but it transpires a family of mice had moved in and made it their new home.

If I'm going to do a tour again and I'm keeping this bike then I'll take a look at having a top box put on the SX.
