Box of SIS beta fuel gels for longer rides. I love them, my legs and stomach too. The mix of fast and low sugar is perfect for endurance.

After looking at all my rides on the CheckPoint since it got built up, I have never used any of the cogs over the 36 when I ride in my local area, only when I took the bike to GA once, where it worked out extremely well, so I decided to pick up the XPLR setup to run with my 1x Setup. I run a 46 tooth chain ring, so this should work out well and will give tighter cogs spacing on the flats and then when I head somewhere extremely hilly, I can just swap out the cassette, chain, RD, and hub body and be ready to go in less than 30 mins.
Rival XPLR eTap AXS Rear Derailleur 12 speed
Rival XPLR XG-1251 Cassette 10-44 12 speed - figure this would give me more options for areas with smaller hills and terrain versus being hamstrung with a 36 tooth.
Force AXS Flattop chain 12 speed
Bontrager Rapid Drive 12-Speed XDR Driver Body

Garmin Edge 540 and two K-Edge Race mounts (of different color); RideWithGPS app consumes iPhone battery at prodigious rate when navigating with Varia.
