What Gear To Do You Ride With?


Recommended Posts

I'm going to buy something to carry on the bike with me, but not sure what I want. I wanted to hear some of your opinions. I'd like to be able to mount a small pack on the banshee, similar to a fender bag for bikes.

 

Don't know what I want.

I have a "back pack" of sorts, it was designed for snowboaders but fits my needs. Has a pouch for my cammel back bladder, comfy shoulder, waist, sternum straps, and enough secure pockets for the essentials. It's not bulky at all and the straps allow me to secure it to my back with little movement while riding.

How do you uys ike your camlepacks?

I really like it, on longer rides with no stops it makes it easy to keep yourself hydrated (prevent dry mouth / take a drink) while you are riding, just position the mouth piece / bitevalve before you start out and you are good to go.

I got an ironman backpack at walmart that is pretty sweet. It's not that big, and comes with straps for around your waist and chest. It comes with those little earphones for a cd player that come right out of the shoulder straps.....

 

I pulled those suckers out, mounted my microphone right in the shoulder strap, and have the helmet camera coming out of the other one. It's a pretty sweet setup. I'm gonna have to get an IMS tank for Hatfield-McCoy next year cause I cant carry the helmetcam and 2.5 gallons on my back at the same time....its just not happening again.

You know the camelbak company is a bunch of eco freaks trying to BAN off road usage. Everytime you purchase a camelbak product, that money goes to lobby against our sport. So when you hear about riding areas shutting down or emissions laws being passed to outlaw 2 strokes...take a GOOD long look at the camel bak you use and thank yourself for helping them achive their goals. Then look at that nice banshee in your shed that is now illegal to ride.

I don't see how it would be possible to keep people from riding 2 strokes...Theres just to many of them out...

 

They would have a VERRY hard time keeping it under control and prolly more trouble then there looking to go threw so im sure that law will never get passed....
