But I sure do love my LOOK 585.
I did this the other day. Rode for a bit then reached down and--nothing!! Left it in the fridge! Was 37 miles from home. Fortunately , was able to find a little coffee shop in that little town and did a bit of hydration there before turning around.
That's not all I forget. I rode to the store last night and turned around and came home. It's only a bit over a mile, but when I dismounted and turned off my headlight, I was horrified to find my taillight in the "off" position. I had forgotten to turn it on. Riding right in the center of a fairly sizable urban city with no taillight. Idiot.
I am 55. I don't want to believe that I am already becoming forgetful. But I guess we are going to get to find out...
