Re: Magicbus!

We planned to have a few days there in Fruita to mountainbike but the rain put the dampers on that- we'll get there next year!

Re: Magicbus!
I don't have a single source for the molle pouches- I just googled "molle pouches" and found several vendors. The military, EMS, law enforcement, etc use these a lot. They come in all different...

Re: Magicbus!

Re: Magicbus!
It's actually increased our storage quite a bit. There's all sorts of molle pouches to find out there in all different shapes and sizes.

Re: Magicbus!
Thanks- we tore thru Fruita a day or so ago and went to the Over the Edge bike shop and ate at the Hot Tomato pizzaria- good stuff. Didn't have time for much else though, maybe next trip.

Yellow lab (Boulder) prison- We gave him a doggie door though! All the netting can be removed very easily for mountain bikes or whatever we want to take with us. We are so content with it.
