Krampus Continued

Some pictures of the new rig, with a proper fitting frame bag and my dyno lights… I used my Dinotte for a few days – and man I missed the Revo. So nice to have things back to ‘normal’. Really enjoying this bike, it needs a proper bikepacking trip to get a full test – but so far its a pleasure to ride.

Fall is here, and with it a change in daylight. I’ve been riding early – in the dark. The Krampus has been getting a thorough workout – bike path, road, single and double track. I have an 8-12 mile loop I can ride, 3 good (short but steep) climbs, can mix in rocky technical riding, and can get a good workout before the kids get up. Today included some trail work – I’ve been climbing over a 4″ tree all week – today I remembered the saw and trimmed it out of the trail.

Nothing more to say at the moment. Had a blast in the woods this afternoon. The Fargo will need to be put up for sale…

Coffeeneuring 2014

Going to add my 2014 Coffeeneuring reports to one post, and update them all here.

Week #1

Coffee outside. Invtervale trail riding, fall colors, and hanging out the day before my birthday. Coffee was Starbucks VIA Columbian, for ease of brewing. Investigating a more mobile coffee setup… but for bikepacking / camping – nothing really beats the VIA and some hot water.
