Tried this once before to no avail, so now adding pictures! O, pictures...
Shorts are in great condition, minus belt. Knickers are in good
condition, with funky knotted belt and two small rips in knee. Rips
have not progressed in several years, safe to say it won't get any
worse.
These are
Whenever I see a photo of people's gear for bikepacking, I never see a
poop shovel. Come on, folks. If you're going to be camping at a place
where there are no portapotties or flush toilets, you must dig a
cathole at least six inches deep for your waste.
Rivendell sells titanium pots and bowls.
Hey David,
Saw that you got out this AM and made a mental note that that's gonna be my
routine here on out with temps rising! Glad you did it, makes the whole day
that much better.

George,
Do you live in Colorado?
You probably saw riders on Greenland Open Space. It covers land from
Greenland exit south to Palmer Lake where you pick up the Santa Fe trail
and it goes down through the Air Force Academy to Colorado Springs.

I have a Goodie Bag by Carsick Designs. It's a small bag that mounts to
handle bar and stem.Carsick Designs is on vacation and there are no
pictures of bags on their web site.
It can hold, wallet,keys,snacks a tall coffee..And it has a web outside
pocket that holds my dog pepper spray..

If you look closely at most chainrings, you'll notice a slight bevel on the
inside, with the outside being flat. This is not universal but is fairly
common. The intended position location is evident in the countersinking of
the bolt holes. An outer ring will have the mounting holes
I worked through this question on my Bike Friday Pocket Rocket with 451mm
wheels when I went to big rings. I set up a 36-48-58 set on a 110/74
crankset, in my case a Suntour XC Pro. Using the Sheldon Brown online gear
calculator, this gave me a match to my standard bikes setup.

If you're set on using two rings, you could also just get the Sugino
XD500-d 34/48 compact double from Harris Cyclery. With 406mm wheels, you
may find the couple extra teeth on each ring are acceptable.

Thomas,
PM sent about 46t middle chainrings I have.
To answer your question - it depends on the chainring. Some have a
chamfered edge that help with up shifts. To be in the correct orientation
with the chainring bolt recesses, chainrings are marked as middle or outer.
In practice you can swap
That early morning light when the air is clear is fantastic. That photo

I never pack a trowel, but that's ok because my hands and feet do the job
of digging just fine :) Any time I didn't have access to a proper washroom
at the outback, it was so easy to find a secluded area 200 feet from the
trail to do the business. Takes a few seconds to dig out a proper hole

Hi!
Has anyone used the 46T Origin-8 chainring sold by RBW (or one like it) in
the middle position on the RBW-sold Sugino crank (or one like it)? Any

enough for you, was there anything non-obvious that you had to do to make
