I am trying to figure out how to squeeze another water bottle onto my road compact... do those cages with the velcro strap really stay on? What if I reinforce with zipties?
I assume you already have a cage on the seat tube. Will another cage not fit on the downtube? I have a Bontrager cage on my MTB's downtube that offers a "side entry." If a standard cage won't work, you might try something like that.
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
