Nacho the Van
It’s that time of the year… race season is here! Whether you’re racing DH, enduro, XC, gravel, or road, weekends are filling up with racing! That means you need fuel for optimal performance. Who needs energy drinks and fancy gels with electrolytes when you can pound a 10oz cup of naturally processed Ethiopian coffee before you hop on the saddle to race?
Wait, you don’t or wouldn’t? All joking aside, we’re gearing up for race season here in Portland with Nacho the Van
Last summer, we published an article about brewing coffee in a Stanley Classic lunch box. It was by far our most popular article last year. Why? There continues to be a trend all over social media about people making fun coffee brewing setups with the Stanley lunch box. So, how did it fare with our new travel pouches?
Easy. That’s the best descriptive word I could think of.
After a little over two months from the night Nacho the Van was stolen, I finally have Nacho back in my possession. It was definitely two months of uncertainty, wondering whether Nacho was fixable, if the finances lined up with the insurance payout to not only keep it but begin fixing it up, and oh yeah … Nacho had to get a drug test. I am excited to share an update on Nacho with you.
As many of you know, Nacho was stolen and got thrashed … a messed up steering column, damaged center console, a broken window, a dented up door, and more. Even before the police found it, many of you reached out about Nacho and shared how you wanted to contribute to seeing the van restored to be fully operational (and serving coffee). Some started giving money, and others pledged without even asking.
