Indeed. Cold-weather stuff can be in the ground now (greens, peas, onions, carrots, etc.), but warm-weather stuff should probably wait until Memorial Day. And then pray to the @FSM that the hail misses us. :mad:
We're supposed to get a dusting of snow tonight.

i stopped carrying my phone when i ride (generally). so rarely pictures.
I am no expert but can easily take a crappy picture in about 10 seconds plus I rarely take the backpack on local trails so it's nice to have a bail out option if I flat or crash. Also handy for tracking in case I murder or something.

almost all the places i ride i'm never more than a 15-20 minute walk and are fairly well trafficked trails. i just like carrying as little as possible.

Rode the hardtail on real trails for the first time today. 3000 ft of elevation in 16 miles. That thing is a dream in the steep shit, I don't miss the suspension at all. It is kind of brutal on the flatter stuff. Thankfully I can pick different trails and get 3000ft in 12 or so miles.
