Yes, cool bike! Just a guess, Nick, but it looks like rolls of irrigation hose or pipe for a turf farm or similar.

Correct, they drain fields that have a tendency to hold water.

In another slight iteration:

Beautiful! I’m tempted to hop into the queue for one of these in iridescent plum if my secondhand options fall through. How do you like it ?

Custom Crux

Had it wrapped which turned the Matt paint into gloss that sparkles in the light. Also custom graphics.

Absolutely love it. It's a Euro frame that has to pass testing so it's overbuilt even though it's 853 tubing. Lame, bit reality for anything stock. I take solace knowing the doentube is damn near dent proof as a result.
The geometey is exactly what I want- very close to a road bike since this is just a bike that can more competently handle unpaved roads.

Current colors are great and the updated fork with mounts is really nice.

Here is a recent shot of my Coconino Disc Dirt Road Racer with the "road" wheels, Boyd Altamonts with Hutchinson Sector 32s. The other wheelset is WI XMR hubs with WTB KOM I-23s and WTB Raddlers. I retire on the 22nd and we'll head to Wyoming until September. The Coconino checks all the boxes for the riding I'll do.

Exclamation 2021 Orbea Terra

Probably the best picture I have of it was actually taken on the test ride I did with it before I bought it.....even the store test pedals.

I also tried it out as a road bike for a while which worked pretty well but is back to the gravel tires for now.
