    What Am I Forgetting?

    I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve. Got the email that my Blackbird 1.1 DBL XLC is on it's way! I got tree straps, and purchased the winter topcover with it (why not?).

    Right now I already have:...

    Wow, no Hennessy or Warbonnet? I think it's funny how the 2-3 brands that a majority of people on this forum own are not represented.
