Congratulations on another fantastic tour! I’ve been furiously taking notes and will shamelessly steal major parts of your route for one of our upcoming rides. I really enjoyed following along!
4 weeks agoI tried that once, putting the headlamp around my handlebar bag. Acceptable in an emergency, perhaps, but not particularly functional.

4 weeks agoI would love to see that!
