People rave about Four Roses Single Barrel, and while it is excellent, I give the edge to Small Batch Select. It's so good. The Penelope stuff is on the same level. I have the Barrel Strength and the Architect, and am on the hunt for the Toasted and Rio.

Catching up on some recent bottles and pours I have pics of. I've really enjoyed the Penelope stuff recently.

Thanks! Nice collection you have. I've never been big into glassware and to be totally honest, I'm still not. However we recently did a bourbon trail trip and I acquired a few. Including the flavor of tonight. This thing is perfect for a 2oz pour.

Thank you! We all know I'll still make periodic trips down to brushy. First pass here. I'll adjust as I go but it's working so far. Both vehicles will be parked in the full size after I have the attic garage spray foamed next week and I get those dozen boxes up there out of my parking spot. If I unplug the golf cart and push it back 6-7 feet I get plenty of space to do whatever.

Tonight's flavor

We have arrived. Time to plan. Have a golf cart to deal with now, too, because who would live in Salado without a golf cart.

So I'm going to open this back up to anyone who's interested. Matt above was interested but it's been a couple weeks since I heard anything back, and we're moving 30 miles further north in the next couple weeks, which is going to make it pretty inconvenient for an exchange. Let me know if anyone is interested in these tires.

Following up. I ended up looking at all recommendations, so I appreciate all of the input, and I went with Magicshine Alty800 front paired with the Magicshine SeeMee200 v2.0. They're both awesome. It was important to me to have the garmin/wahoo style mount for front and rear and the option to get an additional mount as I frequently ride both of my bikes so the ease of swapping back and forth was required. These things are crazy bright, especially the rear. I'm ready for the move.

Wow that's terrible.

Any update here? I'm likely not the only one waiting patiently.

Those bars look gnarly, maybe too gnarly. Check out the Salsa Woodchippers. They're incredible for that type of riding. Could give you the hand positions and comfort you're looking for. FWIW all of my PRs come on flat bars, not drop bars. The limited leverage prevents me from going balls out, but I still have a great time.

Any recommendations for a rear blinky light ? We're moving soon and my daily rides will involve more rural roads and gravel. I get concerned with cars come up from behind me, so a solid rear blinky gives me slightly more peace.

Sold. Sending you a PM now.

Per Strava I have exactly 800 miles on these tires. No punctures and ran tubeless since I got them. Tons of life left. I personally just went down to the 38s in the non-knobby version. Just make me an offer. I like Dos Equis and bourbon and do accept these as trade.

I went under contract for a new home this week. Sadly I'll leave Brushy Creek behind and move much further north, but I'm excited to get my new space setup next month.
