I haven't bought this yet, but holy crap do I want it. Never seen anything like it before and apparently they're super hard to find, and one just popped up on local Craigslist.

Remo Mondo 14x7.5 - it's a snare drum with a djembe/hand drum head on it so you can play it with sticks, hands, brushes, rods, whatever and flip the strainer on or off to make it snappy vs. sounding more like a traditional djembe. Also that finish is sweet.

I found the Switch at London Drugs, of all places. I guess that doesn't make any sense if you aren't Canadian, but I went there specifically because people are barely aware they have an electronics section.

Shoe chat: I don't wear Chucks as much these days and I'm generally an Adidas kind of guy, but drat, I really want a pair of the white on white Flyknit chucks as seen here. Perfect summer shoes as far as I am concerned.

I've had a Mission Workshop bag for the past 4 years and it still looks new. Great choice.

I've heard nothing but good things about them from some people who are rain-or-shine bike commuters, messengers etc. - and I can see why. The build quality looks bombproof.

I am dumb and I missed this post. The zippered pockets are lined and have sealed zippers so yes. The outside pocket is lined but has no zipper. The main compartment is fully waterproof too.

$700 for a spinner, sweet Jesus Murphy. The "EDC" crowd never ceases to amaze.

I for one never leave the house without the bog standard knife, flashlight, gun, vape, multitiool, ring, rubik's cube, pacifier, dildo, laser pointer and dive watch. And now you're telling me I need to carry a top? gently caress. I'm going to need a whole new row of molle webbing.

Marin Pine Mountain. Bought the rigid version because I want to use it more for bikepacking/exploring than trail bombing, but I can always throw a sus fork on it if I want.

Oooooo, I love how Marin has gone full retro with the colour scheme and the painted stem. Look at this one from almost 30 years ago:



Yeah that's awesome. I think they launched those steel models as a big 30th Anniversary thing so the retro schemes certainly fit!

The only change I would make aside from tubeless conversion and a more touring-friendly handlebar is maybe switching to SRAM GX Eagle, or a clutch based Shimano derailleur system, but hey X7 isn't bad. Mine also came with Kenda Havok tires instead of the pictured Nobby Nics, but time will tell if I like the Kendas enough. I'm pretty thrilled with the spec seeing as it's priced so dang well.

Picked up some new backpacking gear today!

Snagged a 30° underquilt from HammockGear (who makes everything right on the other side of town here, which is pretty cool)



Picked up a new reflective ridgeline with tarp connectors from DutchWare Gear:



A new midlayer puffy synthetic jacket:



A BeFree water filter, which will cut down some weight from my current gravity filter without sacrificing flowrate and ease of use:



And some other bits and ends from Dutchware gear like reflective tarp tieouts, new stakes, and possibly my new favorite thing for backpacking, these tiny compressed towels that rehydrate with a few drops of water:



I hate you a little, but give a rousing thumbs up to your purchase. I want to buy a bunch of gear for bikepacking but I'm bare assed broke at the moment.

Check out the new MSR Trailshot! I've put a week or two on mine so far and am loving it. A lot less fiddly than the Squeeze, and not much more weight, and I really like not having to try to fill a bottle/bladder just to start filtering.

The trailshot is great but you have to really keep the filter super clean to keep the flow rate decent.

Did you get the net for the inside?

The Plus version comes with bug netting around the bottom that you can tuck under your groundsheet, so I figured that would be good enough. The netting is all that black stuff in the photo: the regular Deschutes is just the upper part. The Plus packs smaller than the tent + net combo would, which I like. And, I can't afford both a regular Deschutes and the inner net tent put together!

SMD sells collapsible carbon fibre poles as well, I bought one to go with the tent. Depending on your height you can get two different lengths so it's not quite as adjustable as a trekking pole but hey.

Not a Tacx Neo, you have chosen... poorly. (I ride on rollers like a pleb/trackie so take this with a massive grain of sarcasm.)

Content: I bought a pair of these boots! Except I didn't. I just paid a whole big whack of money and I will get them in 10 weeks or so. Dayton custom/made to order Service Boot "Boondocker." They made a limited number of them a while ago and I like the style so much I asked them if they would do it again, and they were like heck yeah we will.
