Got stuck with studying for my exams and decided to take a break. The picture is taken atop of Regensberg, a local hill just outside of Zurich.

Photo taken outside of Sherwood, Oregon looking east at Mt Hood. This is just a few miles from my doorstep. All the climbing can be a bit rough, but the roads and views like this make up for it.

I have the same Varia radar unit. What's your logic for mounting it upside down? For an aero benefit? Also I'm using the optional mount which is way more secure and it looks nicer than the included mount w/ rubber bands.

The supplied o-ring/band is borderline too tight if I put the mount on the seatmast cap. And the radar sensor is below the horizon of the rear tire if I mount it right-side up.

I bought the optional clamp-on mount. It's too small for the seatmast cap. If I mount it below the seatmast cap, it doesn't have as much aft clearance as the o-ring mount and the seatmast binder collar interferes with it.

With no saddle bag under the seat, my thought would be to purchase a Go-Pro saddle rail mount sand a 3d printed Garmin adapter so the Varia would be tucked up behind the saddle.
