Inherited a 1992 4cyl 5spd Toyota 4Runner 4x4.
Has many many many many more years of service left. Making it into my dedicated bike hauling machine !

Nice. Those early 90's 4Runners are great bike haulers and support vehicles.

IDK if I've actually bought it yet, but an extended body e250 'camper van' for taking bikes (and me) to CX races. I'm tired of changing in the cold/snow/hot/rain, etc.

For sure, I've bought a pair of the ltd edition R321 shoes.

slight thread drift: I owned a 1992 4runner with the V6. The 4 cyl is a much more reliable engine. LOVED driving it tho.

Just picked one of these up from the Chrome store. I've got one ride on it so far, and it worked great. I had a mountain tube, a park three way, rain jacket, granola bar, and car keys in it, and wish I had a bit more in there to keep everything in place. Super easy to use, two Velcro straps around the bars, and a draw cord that pulls tight around the steerer/stem. Roll top design opens wide and cinchs closed. I used the bag on a mountain bike ride, and it's stayed in place for two hours, no problem.

First Rapha purchase: merino wool baselayer and wind jacket. Super nice fit, feel, and quality. Made me immediately regret not getting a jersey when I had a 30% off coupon.

Ordered Reynolds R4 Carbon wheelset from Performance. Also Specialized had a 2 for 1 tire deal so purchased their 25cm turbo tire.

Got lucky and found a NOS EPS in my size with traditional geo (and the color scheme that I like as well)
