These are the wheels I ordered. I think they are adequate for my needs.

Just ordered a new tent and Showers Pass 2.1 rain jacket. 25% off the former. 20% off the latter. Buh bye $261 REI dividend.

I damaged my UL tent in a way that doesn’t look easily repairable. It’s sill useable, but I wanted a backup. It’s also hard to get in and out of at my height and only has one door. The new one has two. Downside is that I’m going from 2 lbs. 4 Oz. to 2 lbs. 14 Oz. I can probably cut that down a bit if I use the current stakes with the new tent.

I can’t share this opportunity.
I did 27 bikes today, and there are only 51 left. I’ll be finished on Tuesday.
The store is closed(since 3/17) and everyone is being paid for their scheduled hours.
My boss is paying me out of pocket for these bikes, so that we get ahead of the game. They plan on opening Friday, but we both suspect that the state or county could change that shortly afterward.
check your texts. I know of an opening.

These have super fast and aero shaped 42mm tall and strong double walled rims with machined sidewalls for powerful braking. Strong forged alloy HIGH FLANGE hubs put all your power into going forward with super smooth and fast sealed cartridge bearings to increase your speed and ultra light hollow axles to lighten your bike.

The great thing about having a gravel/cross bike is when you're not sure what bike to ride because of the weather, it's the best option.
