I think I am done dealing with this new format. It's too difficult and
annoying for me to read. Later, folks!

I’m usually skeptic of simplified news reporting, especially in the
presumed context of (rightly) trying to convince the general public that
masks aren’t really an impediment to daily routine activities. Regardless, what
exertion level did they measure the various oxygen levels at? If one is

Thanks for sharing that, Ben. Felt like I just spent 30 minutes with
friends.

I just saw a news report that had a study showing that masks don’t have any
effect on your oxygen levels. That say they feel like they do but the numbers
show you are still getting the same oxygen moving around your body as you would
without a mask.

The thing with masks is that if they're not a bit constrictive, they
probably don't work (except for face shields, but who wants to look like a
welder with a transparent shield?). That's the nature of filters. Having
said that, there's constrictive, and there's *constrictive*. I should say

Thank you both, I ended up getting one from campsaver because I really
wanted the kettle as well.

That's a heck of a unique build and the best bar / chainstay wrapping I've
seen in a good while. This build will be hard to beat for the batch of

This summer I devoured every minute of every video that had anything to do
with Rivendell that I could find. I watched this one a couple of times!
I'm sure everyone has seen it already, but the "Rivendell People" video
that is linked on the Riv website is my favorite. If someone came up to me

I use these masks on my commute to work (which I can just telework, but
whatever) and on longer rides where during nice weekend rides when folks
are out and about. Very exuberant colors and patterns, but it helps to add
some color and fun every now and again.

Hi Patrick,
I've been happy with the masks from BAGGU:

These are sewn with panels top and bottom to allow a space in front of your
mouth that gives more room for conversing. It's about as breathable as any
I agree; I've abandoned the backpack-loaded-with-groceries idea for now. I
have plenty of other opportunities for walking, and I can always strengthen
my arms by carrying loaded cloth grocery bags (properly balanced) back from
the nearer store.

I've found that Campsaver is the best source in the US for Trangia stuff.
They tend to have everything, including spare/replacement bits. Looks like

One final thought on bad backs and backpacks; I would think twice about
carrying heavy loads in a backpack if my back was already ailing.When
mine was acting up, lifting a heavy pack onto and off exacerbated my back
problems, even though things felt okay once the pack was in place. Years
Updated list of what's still available:
1. *Shimano XT FD-M780 Front Derailleur for 3x drivetrains** $20* (new in
box)

*$40 SOLD*
3. *North St. Pioneer 9 Handlebar/Waist bag* *$45* (includes waist belt)
4. *Shimano XTR front hub w/ matching XTR skewer, 32 hole
FWIW, I am 5'7 with a 83cm PBH and this was perfect. As some of you may
know, these frames fit a variety of heights/inseams. I would *not* fit or
want to ride a smaller or larger one of these.

Thanks to all the people who responded since my last thank you. Much useful
information, particularly the suggestions for everyday, practical ways of
getting exercise by doing things around house and yard, which I ought to do
anyway. And I'm glad to see that my preliminary bias toward walking as a
