Been ridiculously impressed with @ortliebusa's Seat-Pack. Using it for commuting and carrying camera equipment and I've yet to find any faults with it. One of my favorite features are the seat post straps. The manner in which the system wraps itself around the post doesn't allow for ANY wiggling, even with out of the saddle efforts. Obviously your balance point changes as you fill it up, but even a fully loaded sack stays put. Will try and put together a video review of it before the onslaught of CX season starts. . . . 🏷: #bikepacking #bagsonbikes #ortlieb #ortliebusa #seatbag #adventurebike #whatimriding @loganvb

Finally got my hands on an @ottodesignworks OTTOLOCK for testing and securing and keeping things. Of course this means more donut 🍩 stops, which is a problem for race weight… . . . 🏷: #ottolock #freshmeat #whatimriding #cyclinggear #cyclingpics #cyclingshots

As much as I complained about the pain from yesterday's ride, I was still outside riding in perfect conditions, on a perfect gravel towpath, wearing the perfect kit, on a not perfect but also not creaking BB30 bottom bracket—still nothing but winning. 🙌🏻💯👍🏻 . Only one ride so far with the @searchandstate S2-R jersey but I can definitely say it's one of the nicest bit of kit sent my way in recent memory. I had the first version, and while there wasn't anything wrong with it, as I slipped my arm through the latest made in NYC release, I could instantly tell this was a marked improvement. More to come on this jersey 👌🏻 . . . 🏷: @lazersportusa @pocsports #searchandstate #lazerhelmets #poc #kitgrid #kitfit #kitwatch #cyclingkit #cyclinggear #cyclingshots #goprocycling #filmstill #roadslikethese #outsideisfree #whatimriding #bikestagram (at Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park)

Lowkey semi-long way home this evening. Resting Boredom face from super-gloom day and being passed by less than a foot by an SUV going at *least* 50mph in a 25 in a national park and knowing nothing will ever be done about it. . Technically, it was dark enough to take off the @asporteyewear 3Matics, but they're too damn comfortable. So I kept them on. 😎 . . . 🏷: #WhatImRiding #commutesteez #cyclinggear #cyclingfashion #cyclingsunglasses (at Pentagon Row)

Did some talking head yesterday during my short blossom ride. Maybe one day it won't take me so fuggin' long to edit and post. The vlog struggle is real. . 🏷: @searchandstate @velocioapparel @pocsports @lazersportusa #WhatImRiding #kitgrid #wtfkits #kitwatch #kitstagram #kitfit #cyclingkit #cyclinglife #cyclingapparel (at Hains Point)

Contrasty B&W shots make riding bike paths look epic af. . Can't believe it's been 2 decades of riding this amazing trail system here in #BikeDC. . 🏷: @rapha Pro Team Flyweight Glasses, @lazersportusa Z1 #whatimriding #kitfit #kitwatch #cyclingkit #cyclingapparel #cyclingshots #cyclingfashion #lazerzone #raphaproteam #bikestagram

Another type of embro burn. I'm guessing this is from the capsicum. All of my synthetic knee warmers, knickers, and tights are being dissolved at the knee from using embro. Unless I'm sweating acid. Which entirely possible considering the nasty skin drugs I took in the 80s to clear my acne. This is a pair of @giordanacycling FR-C bib knickers that will likely eat themselves this winter. 😫 . #whatimriding #whenkeepingitprogoeswrong

While I was shooting myself filling, a Metro bus spun a car 360° over and across the sidewalk and parking it in a space in the parking lot. No one was hurt, thankfully. . Pictured: @handupgloves @velocioapparel @brettcleaver . #whatimriding #waterfountainsofarlingtoncounty
