CHECKPOINT 1 - BANJO BROTHERS

It’s official! Our dear friends over at Banjo Brothers are back with us for a fourth year of operating Checkpoint 1! Banjo Brothers hail from Minneapolis Minnesota where they are core to the cycling community and specialize in making tough, practical, affordable bike bags. DAMn racers will be roughly 60 miles into the course when they spy the Banjo Brothers’ beacon piercing through the seemingly infinite darkness. At this checkpoint, racers will be required to check-in and prepare their cue sheets to help them find checkpoint 2. Race support crews will be there in the designated support zone waiting for their racers if the racer should choose to utilize their support at this time.

IMPORTANT: Racers will need to average at least 10mph in order to make it to each checkpoint to get their next set of cue sheets before the checkpoint cut-off hits and the checkpoint is closed down. Racers who do not make it to a checkpoint prior to the cutoff time will not be given the next set of cue sheets or the opportunity to continue. No exceptions. It is also important to note that DAMn Checkpoints 1 through 3 will be in the middle of nowhere. There will be no restrooms provided (unless you count wooded areas, ditches and cornfields as restrooms). Support crews and riders should take advantage of the restrooms at the start, the finish and in each of the towns that they pass through during their DAMn journey. There will be opportunities. We suggest that you take them. We would be remiss if we failed to mention that in addition to the best bike bags on the planet, Banjo Brothers makes a fantastic cue sheet holder: https://banjobrothers.com/products/cue-sheet-holder ...and aside from a sandwich bag, it’s the only one we are aware of. We highly recommend you check it out as it could come in handy out there...especially if it rains. We are both thankful and proud to have Banjo Brothers back as an official sponsor of The Day Across Minnesota! Kind Regards, Trenton Photo | DAMn CP1 2019 | @tmbimages

Top tip - always keep a foldable musette in your saddlebag for those unexpected purchases. I use this one from @banjobrothers (had it for years). #cycling #urbancycling #bikeculture #cardiff (at Ride My Bike Cafe) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7gfZtaF8DH/?igshid=iswr9o2n34s3

Early Father's Day gift! I have a long ride on Wednesday I'm going to test this out on. Earlier today I had to use two Ortlieb bags to get clothes, a laptop, and lunch to work. To test the capacity I took all of those things and they fit in this one @banjobrothers bag. The backpack straps are nice and I now have a place for my Ulock. Thanks for the recommendation @katelikessilverbikes! #bikebag #bikegear (at Eagle Rock, Los Angeles)

DAMn FOOLS - BIKE BAGS

Holy smokes! It's our last episode of DAMn Fools, and we're taking y'all out in style. In this episode, "The Godfather of Soul", James Brown, encourages us all to treat ourselves. We also get some sage advice from gravel racing veteran and bike bag inventor extraordinaire, Banjo Brothers' very own Eric Leugers, on how to outfit your bike to carry everything you'd need to tackle a race like The DAMn! There's still time to prepare your body, bike, and mind for the adventure to come. We recommend you all keep on it. Happy Independence Day, y’all!

-Trenton & Erik

Sometimes you gotta suck it up and haul it on your back. Thanks @banjobrothers for making the bag that checks all the boxes for commuting by bicycle. Thanks to @grizzlycycles661 for recommending and ordering a good quality bag. . .
