I've ridden clipped in and flats on a MTB. I far prefer to be clipped in. You can fake having better control of the back end being clipped in and I have found myself coming close to hitting the boys by slipping off the pedals.

I love specialized helmets. Although i haven't tried any other brands, the spec ones do what they say on the tin.

I can't count the number of times i've come home from a ride (gravel, road, mtb) and the seat tube is speckled in sealant. Without being tubeless i would 100% flatted and had to end my ride earlier than expected. The lower pressures allowed by tubeless benefit everyone, especially those of us...

Usually about once a season. I honestly really like the Zipp service course road tape. It seems to be more durable than the lizard skins (which are super comfy, but they wouldn't last a cx season).

If I cant work on it with a cassette tool or a set of allen keys the bike goes to the shop

I don't really like taking photos on the bike. I just tune into the music/podcast I'm in and watch the miles tick by

I find the knickers are the right length for a lot of cooler days. Sometimes the full bore tights are the play, but i've had pretty good luck with just knickers during CX season

Still looking, I'll let you know when i find em.

I honestly think that riding at night is better. I don't have a varia light or any vehicle detection so i like being able to see the lights coming up from behind. Also I feel like the rear blinky lights stand out far better on the night sky than they do during the day.

Tubeless on everything! Lower daily maintanence, higher quarterly

You're too tense on the bike then. Relax and let your body naturally handle the balance.

Well weekends mostly, but not really until the new year do I have time to really go out and knock out the century on Tunnel hill

No need for a new bike, just use one of the ones i already have.

I try for a more consistent food in situation, but that's because it's hard to shovel in lots of food when riding for me. I try to consume every 10-15 min

I definitely prefer padded bib-tights. The tights over bib shorts works, but i find the two materials are both extremely slick and i end up with tights falling off

Full drivetrains are so expensive

This weekend in a sandpit. just lost the front wheel and down i went. laughing the whole way

For XC sure, but most of the time i prefer to be comfortable when MTB'ing. Also skinsuits are expensive and that makes wrecking costly (physically and financially).

I'm a big M&Ms guy. When I'm going hard during a race, i found out i like sweedish fish.

Thanks for your hard work Shawn
