<h2> Rope </h2>
We normally buy 200m of 9mm and 200m of 10mm, although you may like to get some 11mm if stocks are running low. The preferred brand is Equirial available from Starless River. You'll also want some slings, the standard length are 120cm.

<h1>Expo Transport: people and gear</h1>
This page is an index to other pages with the information you need (updated 2018).
<p>
The logistics of getting 20 or so cavers and half a tonne of miscellaneous gear out to Austria, on a shoestring budget with a limited number of cars, and people coming-from/going-to various places are daunting. The job mostly involves collating info and badgering people regularly. Starting early saves everyone money.
<p>
Organising transport is one of the biggest nightmares and the sooner we know who is going and when, the easier this gets. Getting a second (non- refundable) deposit off people helps to tie them down.

</ul>
The expo handbook assumes (in places) that it is the Treasurer who organises transport; or by default it gets done by the expo leader. This is probably not a good idea and a dedicated transport coordinator should be nominated. This must be someone who has been on expo before, and who can liaise closely with the treasurer on decisions about allowable costs.
<p>
Entering data: we have had no particular problmes requiring all expoers to hand-edit HTML or Markdown tables when stating their travel plans. This is somewhat surprising.
<dt>Commercial gear shipping</dt>
Rumour has it that we paid for a pallet of gear to be transported to Hilda's using a commercial courier at some point in the past.

<P>The bugbear of the Expo Treasurer... This is a co-ordination/coercion game. Ask everybody when they would like to go to Expo, then match those without cars of their own to those who have cars and will take passengers. Try to make sure that each vehicle that will be funded by Expo will be as fully utilised as possible.</P>
