          50 pounds is impressive; nice work.  How much do you plan to lose?

                Just completed LVL II Skogg test  2.5 min of snatches with each arm was tougher then I anticipated. My arms are pretty dead right now.

                          like a week? pretty sure i've always got a ship notice after a few days
                          not some sort of a preorder situation? I think they've done that in the past with short run colors and stuff.

                            Just wondering. No special colors, just standard black on both the gr2 and brick bag. Thanks jaco

                              06/11/2013 - Ordered my gear

                              06/19/2013 - received tracking number

                              06/26/2013 - arrival

                              Excited to receive the new gear but its  two days too late for me to use on my next adventure. Disappointed… I know they had received a ton of orders for the new color ways on their products but not sure how my order fell through the cracks

                                Shocked usually get my stuff in one week from order date without expedited shipping. They ship from West coast and I live in the east coast.

                                  I was a little surprised they're shipping from Washington myself. I guess I'll have to wait it out and plan an outing to test the new goods. I know I'll be impressed with its quality….  I'm just frustrated with the length of time it will take to get to my doorstep

                                    product is outstanding i have a GR1 & GR2 and both are the best bags I own. I have owned some top notch bags Arc'Teryx, Gregory, Osprey etc… And unless I'm thru hiking a goruck is coming with me.

                                      Yeah your review on your gr1 helped me pull the trigger on my gr2. It's going to be my carry-on bag, hiking,  and work bag. Depending on the location of the event, I hope to be joining your boys in one of the Goruck challenges

                                        Glad I could be of assistance. Z is bringing my GR2 to Peru before he decided which bag to order. You can't go wrong with either one. I sound like such a fanboy.

                                          I'm looking forward to April 2014.

                                          Not sure how ready I will be for the events coming up in September 2013 and October 2013 as I've had unexpected events come-up.  I never say never & figure I'll know better what i'm doing late August 2013.

                                          closely related, please keep grinding it out D666, motivating isn't even the word for what you are.  Let me know if you need someone to get you any endorsement deals as you are a poster child for a number of heart healthy diets & healthy choices in general.
