Hopefully sooner than later I’ll be picking up a Vitus Sentier VR+
Super stoked to finally get a real bike.
Not real expensive, but it’s won hardtail of the year for like 3 years straight. So Vitus has to be doing something right.
 
Bought myself a new toy today!

Looking for some storage ideas... I like to keep my helmet, gloves and shoes in the back of my access cab since no one is ever back there.

I usually just end up tossing them on the floor or trying to have them sit on the shelf. Sooner or later its a mess.

Anyone have any creative ways to hang gear? I have a J hook with a strong magnet that works to hold the helmet, but can't find anywhere to put it up back there. Have it on the seatbelt loop now but just dangles around and hits the door.

Finally hit some actual trails for the first time yesterday with a buddy of mine. Now I’m definitely hooked.
Going out in about 2 hours for some more riding.

Hell yea. I went on a few double black diamonds yesterday.
I haven’t ridden a bike since 2007ish but raced bmx from 2002-2006ish so I’m really comfortable in a bike. It all came back to me almost immediately. I was jumping double gaps yesterday too.
It’s exhausting, but I’m hooked!
 
Ok need some ideas..

I have the KB Voodoo cross bars (the ones that sit on the factory tie downs. I am looking for something I can mount my bike to these bars. I would need a 15x110 thru axle combination. Any suggestions on roof racks that I could put on these? I have the short bed taco so I am thinking my measurement I can work with is 55" from end to end of the bed. I am between the Kuat Trio since I have seen this before mounted to some XRXS cross bars and the Malone Pilot rack that attaches to the tire.

Any suggestions of any roof racks that can fit on these bars and in the bed is much appreciated. The goal is to eventually create 2 levels of stuff for race season when I am loading the truck for races. Light items on top across the bars and heavy items on the bottom
 
This is my ride, out in Malibu State Park, before it all burned down. I have owned this bike since new and still absolutely love riding it. I also have a Kona Explosif hardtail
