If Eric S. Sande ever gets out to the Seattle area or I ever get to the Washington DC area, I'd like to buy him a cup of coffee. Yesterday he posted this lovely and practical bit of advice over on the Bike Touring List:

Keep 'em rolling and keep perspective. Eric's wise words are good guidance for the journey.

Yes, I do like it. Thanks. I'll print a copy for my wife.
ReplyDeleteHey, what sorta cream do you use on your undercarriage on long trips to avoid chafing?

Thank you for sharing this, Kent. It is a concept that rattles around in my head, but that I have never been able to explain as well as this.
ReplyDeleteHey keasty,
ReplyDeleteMostly I use Bag Balm. On the GDR I used plain old Vasaline and it worked fine.
