    @sabergirl absolutely this is definitely something me and Lynne have spoken about, and the straps are a biggie for me, nothing worse then having a tote you can't get your arm through, and we have mentioned potentially adding a buckel to the strap that is adjustable, so you have the ability to change the length to your needs, otherwise it might as just be shopping bag if the straps are too short haha, but having different shapes like portrait have been mentioned so I'm sure we will look into designing something.

      Will there be a Black Friday or any other Iron Heart sale coming up soon?

        @Denman-John Typically there is not, but I will let the IHUK crew confirm.

          @Denman-John No we don't do Black Friday sales, generally we just do one sale annually, which was earlier in the year

          The devil is in the detail..

            No on both counts.

            Dislike the Black Friday shit with a passion. I did it once or twice in the early days because I thought it had to be done. Then I realised I did not need to be part of an artificial construct. Does not mean we wont move some stuff into the Outlet if we feel like it.

            We have sales when it makes sense to us, we need to make space, want to have some fun in an otherwise quiet period etc etc

            And we never announce more than a couple of days in advance, otherwise we may as well do a general price reduction.

              Roger, @motojobobo have you ridden this? Forgive me if you have already told us....

                @Giles That bit of curvy road is known as Caracoles. It is a 30 km stretch of 29 curves taking you up (down) 600 meters. 2200 to 2800 meters. Terrific fun but those 3 km fly by too quickly. Very steep incline. Averages 20%!!! Hell for heavy trucks, especially descending, where they cannot use disk brakes and must rely on engine braking/lowest gear.
                Enjoyment hinges on luck too. If you happen to hit heavy truck traffic, it becomes annoying. Happens frequently because it links Santiago (Chile) with Mendoza (Argentina), two big cities with significant commercial cargo between them.
                If you remember the classic car rally I shared here a month ago…they went through Caracoles.
                Btw, caracoles means snails…so I assume it

                The journey is the objective.

                  @JoshC @sabergirl solid points for sure, especially if the 25oz tote is super full. Adjustable would be so sick!

                      FWIW @Oaktavia @JoshC I’d personally just prefer about 2 inches more length to the straps. Having adjustablity just makes it dumbly and hardware gets caught on things.

                          In the US we have a road that’s been named The Tail of The Dragon…318 corners over 11 miles up,down and over two mountains. I rode it once.

                            I rode the Moki Dugway in Utah a couple times back when I had a bike still...
                            Not nearly as gnarly but quite dangerous and VERY beautiful.

                                @Oaktavia It’s called US129 and it is in Robbinsville,NC and I think at some point it might cross into Tennessee. Had to look it up,but it begins in NC and ends in TN.

                                    @Oaktavia There’s a company called www.killboy.com that photographs people on that road every day,and you can purchase your pictures from them. These are 2 I had framed from 2006. IMG_1229.jpeg

                                          IB has a black weft and indigo warp thread in the fabric. XHS is your standard white/cream weft.
