Grab It and Ride

I haven’t been able to ride for a couple of weeks now due to some serious back pain. Yep, totally sux. Anyways, the prescriptions have helped a lot. In today’s intense heat though, after a short hike in the woods and liters of perspiration lol, I am suddenly feeling better than I had been in days. I have no idea why or how that happened but it’s a welcome change and I sure hope it stays that way :)

I’m looking forward to the next ride – I’ve purchased a tail bag for my bike that I will be using to carry my 5DII. I’ll be outfitting it with pads from an old camera bag and I’ll strengthen the pre made harness so I don’t need to worry whether it can safely hold the camera’s weight or not. I typically ride with a GF1 and that works very well cause it’s very compact and I can whip it out fairly quickly(see image above). I’ll certainly keep using it predominantly on bike trips but there have been times where I would have preferred to pack the 5DII instead. The new setup will hopefully make it an easy choice to just grab it and ride.

My Zen

Spring has sprung and one of my favorite things to do is in full effect. Riding. I’ve been riding for slightly over a year now – though it’s something I’ve always wanted to do – I should have listened to the little voices in my head back in college. It’s an amazing experience to be [...]
