I like my Osprey Raptor 14 as it can carry plenty of shit for an all day Pisgah epic. And I second the sawyer Squeeze. Way better than hauling 3L of water when it's all around you to begin with.

Fork for new bike is supposed to come in this week. Just pulled the trigger on new wheels.
Kinda want to puke...

What wheels didja get?
Light bicycle recon pro on hope pro 4.
This will be my 3rd wheelset from them, and if they're anything like the first two, I'll be extremely happy.

This thing is coming together faster than I thought. You'll be able to break it in before rhe year is over at this rate.
I want to get it to a rollable state so I can use it like a large, adult strider bike and at least roll up and down the driveway. But full drivetrain, brakes and pedals will be later.... forcing myself to stop. The fork and wheels were tough...like pulling off a bandaid.
I've had an XC set and a heavy trail/all mtn set for 4-5 years now I think, both on the Pro 4 hubs. The set on the trail bike has seen some shit (I'm a good 235+ lbs), and are just as solid as the day I got them. Still run true, haven't even had to tension/true them at all. No inserts either (new bike will).
Thoroughly impressed for sure.
i have zero complaints with my hope hubs. beat the crap outta pro2s for years; only reason i went pro4s was b/c new frame was boost.
Ok, so kiddo had a great pun tonight.
we were eating dinner, and he said “not really a fan of this rice”.
I said “that might be because it is Orzo”
without missing a beat, he said
”So, it’s an impasta!”
much guffawing and groaning ensued.

go to youtube and search My Self Reliance
videos generally have little talking and this guy just getting shit done...
Just found out that my Wife's older brother swooped in, tossed all of my MIL's shit into a trailer and headed back to New Mexico with her today.
None of us Californians could put up with her full blown Trump loving any more. I didn't even have the chance to say don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out to her.
Hopefully this marks the end of any interactions I will ever have with the bitch.
I'm using Ospreys these days, only complaint is they're a little overly complex - moar buckles & straps & zippers & drawstrings, plz...
And heavy. If MTB hydration packs were made by the same companies that make some of my hiking gear they would weigh next to nothing and have fewer straps and buckles.
