[RBW] Speaking of carrying your camera while on your bike...

[Philip Williamson]

I bought one of the originals from a list member a couple weeks ago. Pretty 
cool.
I saw two on a ride recently. They’re everywhere!

[RBW] Re: Chacos vs. Bedrocks

[Drw]

I went from chacos to bedrocks and like them much better. Chacos sole is really 
thick. Unnecessarily thick, in my opinion. Bedrocks have a grippier foot 
cushion that is still thin enough to feel some connection to the ground, and 
the cairn 3D pro’s outsole is definitely thick enough for pretty scrappy 
hiking. I’ve taken mine on some hikes I wouldn’t consider bringing chacos on. 
Not that chacos would fall apart or anything, but they feel too chunky on my 
feet for sandal hiking.

[RBW] Re: Chacos vs. Bedrocks

[Justin, Oakland]

Depends on which Bedrocks. The non-3d versions are very very thin compared 
to Chacos. Plus the retention doesn't feel as LOCKED IN as Chacos feel. The 
toe strap takes some getting used to but in the long run I think they are a 
great adventure sandal. I have non-3d Cairns and would definitely get the 
Cairn with the thicker sole in the future.

Need some opinions from anyone who has owned Chacos and Bedrocks..I 
know you are out there.

My old Z1's are coming undone at the outsole.  I might send them in for 
resoling, but I am debating trying the Bedrocks.  I've read great reviews 
and heard some IRL positive feedback but the toe strap scares me a bit.  I 
have heard they are great for riding as well, which I do a lot in my Chacos 
too.  Mostly they we be for all sorts of warm weather adventuring when I 
don't want to take my hikers.

Re: [RBW] Recommend a film camera

[tom coppedge]

Another vote for the Yashica T4, if you're looking for a film
point-n-shoot.  I got a T4 Super eons ago, and it's def the best
point-n-shoot film camera I've had.  Sweet Zeiss glass.  When not in use,
the lens retracts, and a handy auto lens cover slides over to protect
it...making the front face of the camera flat, which helps with storage and
pocket-ability.

Re: [RBW] Recommend a film camera

[David Bivins]

Good call on the Yashica T4. I didn't recommend it because it is so
expensive, but I actually got one at a street market in Germany for a very
good price (about $150 if I recall correctly). In Europe it was called the
T5.
Others to grab if you see them and they work are the Ricoh R1 series and
Ricoh GR series. Only if they're inexpensive, because they're going to die
at some point. But holy cow if they aren't lovely photo takers in the hands
of someone with a good eye.

I'm looking to try those when they get back in stock.

If you end up having the Nitto Kite as a contender I have one unused acquired

[RBW] Re: Wider flat bars

[S]

My favorite flat bars are the Nitto Kite:
https://global.bluelug.com/nitto-b355-kite-bar-silver.html

If those have too much sweep for you, I also like the Nitto Heron:
https://global.bluelug.com/nitto-b354-heron-bar-silver.html

Both are 630mm wide, maybe not wide enough, so you might consider the 
SimWorks Getaround bar, which is 700mm wide. I'm thinking of buying one 
myself:

Re: [RBW] Recommend a film camera

[S]

The best camera is the one you have with you, so buying a pocket-sized 
point-and-shoot like the Olympus is a great idea. Another good pocket 
camera is the Kyocera/Yashica T Proof/T4. Zeiss lens, weather resistant. 
Overpriced on ebay but worth keeping an eye out for at garage sales, etc.
