Winning "Mountain Bike Tip" entry in Competitor magazine:15121512ALWAYS BRING A SPARE SOCK! There are several possible uses, but this one nearly saved my life. At the beginning of a 4 hour epic ride, I realized I had forgotten my bike shorts. I didn't get more than 20 pedal strokes before I knew this was NOT going to work.  I pulled the spare sock out of my camelback and slipped it over the whole "package" then I zipped the end of the sock into my zipper so I wouldn't lose it. The ride turned out to be a great one and I was so thankful to be SAVED BY THE SOCK!15121512SCOTT M. LUND, D.C.15121512Team members include:1512Scott M.
