The Weakest Link

If you are packing for a trip and you can't decide whether or not to pack a raincoat, look to see if your partner has one. If he doesn't and it rains, you screwed up packing one because you are going back because he doesn't have a raincoat.
If you are riding alone in the backcountry, the idea of the weakest link is more literal. Keep your chain lubed and carry some tools and water. Jah might protect the innocent and the ignorant, but don't press your luck. It's funny how your enthusiasm can change once you've got your second wind. You might have set out from the house meaning to take a mellow ride and some kids pass you going up some hill and the next thing you know you're in the next county. Pack enough to get you home. Have Fun!/
