nice pic... but not very OCP! http://www.smileycons.com/img/emotions/231.gif


Oh Come on, loose fitting shirt, fanny pack (actually it's some sort of Camelbak that save my ass that day), how much more OCP can a guy get:p j/k Phil, I really wish I could ride with you guys tomorrow:(

That fanny pack will carry a ton of stuff! 64 oz water, 2 tubes, 1 tire, MiniDisc, 5 gels, 3 clif bars and a bag of powdered drink. This is along with the normal stuff like sunscreen, lip balm, kleenex, bandaids, pills (varies), camera... (and the occasional 'Tow Rope' :eek: )

I am sure that I could also strap stuff to the outside of the bag, but except for a big jacket, I could easily hold things in my jersey or in a Bento Box (new idea forming!) :) ...

Oh, and the bag is black and red :p and stays virtually hidden for photo opportunities at the (ever-present ) Starbuck's, so it does count for OCP points :D

We will be doing this ride together soon enough, good luck in your training this weekend!

You gotta use an old tube to protect the frame.
