Thanks for the Great Times, LA!

We just got back from Los Angeles, where we had a lovely group ride followed by a meet n' greet at our bag manufacturer, Road Runner Bags. It was a great time, so sit back and enjoy our photo essay.

Starting out from the coffee shop (where all rides should always commence), we tracked through the city, crushed a series of gravel roads, and finally meandered a ton of narrow, dusty, single-track trails. Had I turned Strava on, you would see a spaghetti of red lines, speeds exceeding 30mph on the downhills, and speeds reduced to 0mph for sections that required a good 'ol hike-a-bike.

We had a terrific group of riders and sincerely enjoyed every minute of the trip!

Mike, all the way from Australia!

This nicely set up Niner had Dajia Cycleworks Far Bars. A wonderful choice for mixed terrain riders.

Day Tripper Saddle Bag with a freshly found future-telling crystal.

Fenders and all, run what you brung.

Sean's custom frame had a Postino Handlebar and City Brake Levers.

Ester looking fly as always.

Stephanie's mega wheelie!

Clint's Piolet looked right at home on the dusty and rocky trails.

Once we got back to the shop, brews and good times were had. We revamped RRB's showroom space to display our luggage collaboration. Look closely and you'll see a color that we're thinking of putting into production.

The jersey was a hit.

One of the most radical custom low-riders I've ever seen.

Yep, there's a hoof in that Mojave Bottle Cage.

Another Randonneur Bag, this time on Alex's Wolverine.
