... and ass. The custom bags that I'll use for the race came in today. I couldn't be happier with how they turned out. If you want more info on the bags or the race...go here:

Nice packs, and very nice bike! Good luck with the ride. That's a LONG way to go.

I've been riding Shimano pedals for 15 years and haven't ever noticed a problem. In truly nasty, muddy conditions, any pedal is going to be harder to get into. I've seen too many Eggbeaters and other non-Shimano stuff break. I'd rather not be stranded for this ride.
