But they are laying across the singletrack trail, lol.

Back to the purchasing! Here is Mrs. Newleaf's Wolf Tooth Double Bottle Mount. We are still awaiting the B-Rad base.

Correction: I previously believed the Double Bottle Mount does not require the use of a B-rad base, but the company's literature shows I was mistaken. Good thing I'd already ordered a base for reasons relating to the adjustment of the bottles' mounting position.

Depending on the length of the B-Rad base, they run ~$10-30. The Double Bottle Mount is ~$25. Longer B-Rad bases allow for progressively larger shifts in the water bottles' mounting points. They can also allow for the mounting of other accessories above or below the bottles.
I love the dual bottles on my fat bike and am considering a second doubler setup for the bottom bottle mount. I'd previously thought to put an Anything-type cage down there for a 32oz/900ml Nalgene, but a pair of 620ml bottles such as I already have adds up and converts to 42oz.
That isn't much more than a 32oz Nalgene, but I'll almost always opt for greater water capacity over lesser. Just because you have it doesn't mean you have to use it.
With the existing setup, I'd end up with 84oz of on-bike water capacity. That's close to the amount of water I need to complete a self-supported metric century. Add the 100oz Camelbak I'm still trying to avoid and now we're talking water for riding and camping, too. That also leaves the fork triple mounts available for yet more water or other gear.

A while back, Mrs. Newleaf bought a couple of hanks of artisinal alpaca yarn. Then she bought a winder and an Amish swift to turn the hanks into proper yarn balls.
In cycling terms, this is like a talented MTB rider learning to manual for the first time. She is really good at crochet these days, but this was the first time she's tried going from hank to yarn ball. Much like a manual, that process is actually more complicated and involved than it sounds.
Halfway into the project, our rescue golden retriever Miss Daisy found it. She likes to eat soft things. Some yarn was lost, along with that iteration of the project. The yarn loss meant that the whole pattern had to change, but Mrs. Newleaf is nothing if not adaptable and found an alternative.
The completed hat matches my helmet wonderfully and fits beneath it with room to add a balaclava if needed. It is likely I will also wear it off the bike, too

I always thought I would end up with a pair of those crab claw mittens, but for Christmas I always get regular gloves, so I’ve never purchased any.Found a sale! For $16, I completed my yellow jersey/shoes/gloves kit.
View attachment 55965
View attachment 55966 Comfy supple.
Next come the Mr. Spock gloves
View attachment 55967 they look strange but feel warm, and I've always loved the idea of semi-mittens. $55 on an after season sale.
You’ll have to let me know how those work out for you.
