Nuvali GPS Route |
As usual, the heat was unrelentless.
I'm changing the way I prepare my gear for long rides. Since I'm essentially a century rider, I think I'd be better off getting myself a proper touring bike. I'm actually saving up to buy a Surly Troll. My dream ride is to go on bike tours cross-country lasting several days or weeks. I'm really itching to one day be able to travel like a rubber tramp, camping out, visiting far-flung locales and just enjoying life out there.

Ain't she a beauty?! |
At the moment, I try to avoid using a backpack (with water bladder) on my long rides. Since my current MTB doesn't have water bottle holders, I make use of my Deuter rear rack bag to hold one water bottle, and hooking up another water bottle underneath my saddle somewhere.

Dumping all my gear on the bike itself so I can free myself the burden of a backpack. |
