Niced to see most of your buddies wearing full protective gear. It sure helps when me from getting hurt when I am trying to keep up with better riders. Are camelbaks getting popular with your crew?

Where did you get that pic? That was from another ride... lol...

Camel baks are a necessity when its pushing 90 degrees... mine was half gatorade and half water... i ran dry though, should have used my 3.0L one in stead of the 2.0L one... I have two camel baks.
