Re: Oval rings. Absolute Black or Absolute B*ll*cks?

I would say it helps my creaky knees a little bit.

Re: Help me think this through...

Very sunny and chilly ride home.

Re: Rear light?
Have a moon copy from AliExpress. It has a built in rubber strap and clip. I just strap it to the back of my helmet.

Re: The ultimate bikepacking shoe?
I vaguely remember having shoes with compasses in the heels.
Don't remember animal tracks though.
I think I was six or seven.
Also spent a lot of time in wellies.
What was the question?
