Reader Harvey J. sent us a link to a web site that ties in nicely with our recent posts about utility uses for bicycles: Hauling Cargo by Bike

We’ve recently added two new Affiliate Advertisers: 1.) TotalVid. They provide a wide range (thousands) of instructional videos via high speed Internet download. Many of these videos are for practical do-it-yourself skills. They offer a free trial subscription. Check them out. And, 2.) KeepYouSafe. They provide off-site backup of crucial documents for both businesses and families.

Oh, and speaking of our Affiliates, I should also mention that Nashbar has Nalgene Assault 1.5L Hydration Packs (similar to CamelBaks) on sale at 60% off. I have found that this size hydration pack is ideal to wear under a ghillie suit or ghillie cape.

Rob at Green Mountain Gear tells us that the last of the 3,000+ magazines in the recent group Buy have now been shipped. Rob apologizes for the delay, but government contracts took priority so GMG only got the Group Buy magazines in dribs and drabs–taking a full month longer than expected to ship all of the magazines. Thanks for your patience! Rob says that he is confident that he can put something together with a faster turn around for the next SurvivalBlog Group Buy. He is currently working on:several Group Buy possibilities, including an AR-15 magazines from D&H, M14 magazines from the Army prime contractor, Glock magazines, and Camelbak hydration systems.
