Race Day Gear Bag
Just posted a video on CXHairs.com about what to include in your gear bag. Good tips and insight on clothing selection and eliminating that sinking feeling when you show up at a race with only one shoe.

Holy crap, he's got a lot of stuff. I thought I overpacked for races, but I think a towel and a spare jersey are the only things I have in common with him. My bag is mostly full of tools and spare parts. I'm guessing he's got another bag for those.

Drove 90mins to race w/o my wallet - no license, no ID and no cash to buy one day license. Didn't really know anyone then either (to mooch off of) - most pissed I've been in several years.
