Around this time last year, I started a new hobby born from birdography. I enjoyed (still do) getting up early, loading up the camera gear and hiking miles to get shots of anything alive. After hours of shooting, lugging the gear back to the car became a pain in the rear, buttocks, calves, back, thighs, sacroiliac, shoulders etc. I said to myself 'self, how can we make this easier?' Mountain bike with rack - Bingo!
Got a bike, added a rack and bag that could carry the 7dmII and 300F4 lens. That did the trick for many of my outtings. During the bike research, I caught the mountain biking bug and NEEDED a bike just for riding down rocky mountains, through sandy creek beds with flowing water, past trail guarding rattlesnakes, under trees with chop licking mountain lions - all that stuff and more.
Here are a few pics of the bikes and a few somewhat recent shots of the birdies we love.
