So, that completely BS cut has kept me off the bike for a week. It's not big, but deep, and I can't grab the handlebars. WTF? I slept in pretty late on Sunday which is usually a good sign that my body is sorta tired. It happens every now and again. Maybe it's a good thing.
On the plus, I worked out a new rig for the front of my bike. I hit EMS and got the biggest Sea to Summit dry bag and stuffed all my sleeping gear into it. Compresses down a bit smaller than running the SweetRoll with my bag in the outer harness. Will test soon enough...
