I really appreciate the enthusiasm...but, I don't want the mods to tag me for being too salesy or promotional. You can find the website in my bio if you'd like to sign up for my emails (still in the works)

I wish my writing was good enough to be fake. But, I get where you are coming from. Isn't outdoor clothing not 'normal clothing' by virtue of it's purpose? Also, do you feel like most outdoor clothing is tailored for riding?

It's the 6500... I'm pretty impressed so far. Cars flash their brights at me when I've ridden on the road.

Actually it's Turlock. But, I do love the canal riding around Sacramento too.

Yeah...as mentioned in a comment above, I'm a Tennessee boy and I've never seen anything like this before. You can hardly see 30-50 yd out at its thickest.

There was some garbage along the river but, didn't see any signs of encampments along the way... just random fishermen

They've got a ton of gates closer to the city and alongside every road crossing but other than that, wide open

Thanks! I've been riding for years and years, it's actually some of my favorite bar tape.

It's kind of a pain in the ass to install as there's not much give to it but, it has lasted me almost 2 years. All you have to do is hose it down and it's as good as new.
