Winter "Training"

We had a dusting of snow last Saturday night. Summer has left the building. It is the official indicator that the "Late Fall Party of Laziness" has ended and Winter training has begun (with or without me). So Tim and I ventured out in the dusting of God's cocaine and mustered about 12 miles in the Foothills.

I cannot reveal the details of my "SSWTP" (super secret Winter training plan) but it might involve pilates while watching McGyver reruns. Or it might not, you'll just have to wait until the Spring season starts. If I crush it you'll know.

I ordered a revelate designs tangle bag a few weeks ago and I haven't used it yet. I've been too busy trying to decide what I will carry with all of this new found space that is not on my back, but between my legs. So far I have made these conclusions:

 

Two 24oz Podium bottles do not fit.

A 48oz Nalgene fits (but then I have to refill bottles).

 A stuffed white squirrel does not fit.

One Giro Code fits....you never know when you might destroy a carbon last hammering on a bikepacking trip.

I was going to ride to work tomorrow but then realized that I am out of spare tubes and my front has two punctures from goatheads today.
