Who do I contact about the width of the TET?
The front half fitted. Then both expedition panniers arrived at once.

Found a section that hasn’t been made wide enough for adventure bikes. Front half went through absolutely fine, then both panniers arrived at once.
Wasn’t going fast. Just fast enough that reversing is now a separate problem.
These are proper expedition panniers, so I’m surprised the route hasn’t allowed for them. Surely there’s a standard?
Before everyone starts on packing light, I’m away for four days. I need clothes for riding, clothes for the pub and something respectable in case the pub’s nicer than expected.
The other box is mostly security equipment to stop people stealing the boxes.
Yes, they’re quick-release. The release catches are inside. The lids open outwards. There are currently two substantial pieces of countryside preventing that.
Someone on a little trail bike squeezed past and suggested taking less stuff. Easy to say when your entire luggage system is a sandwich.
Would appreciate practical advice from anyone who’s dealt with this, ideally someone local with two vehicle dollies and no opinions.
EDIT: Tried selecting “narrow roads” on the satnav. No change.
EDIT 2: Please stop suggesting butter. These are powder-coated.
EDIT 3: Cancel the recovery request. A dog walker helped me rock it backwards. Now through with the panniers off. Would still like this marked on the GPX so other expedition riders know there’s some carrying involved.
