Subject: Show us your Bucket: the Bucket Porn Thread

I was skeptical, but all the folks extolling the virtues of bucket use and sitting in transition over the past couple of days has got me yearning for some bucket. Having a hard time deciding, so show me what you got and why youse got it.

In the other thread I posted my first choice, because everyone knows red buckets is fastest :

red

 

But then I was at Academy yesterday afternoon and saw this one in the hunting/fishing department:

 

camo

 

Talk about nice: padded seat, carrying strap, multiple pockets to put stuff like soap, a razor and a toothbrush, if I want to engage in some additional personal grooming after I wash my feet during transition. Only problem is it's camoflauged so it may, like, disappear in transition.

I've heard (but cannot find pictures) that Zipp makes a transition bucket, dimpled carbon fiber with a titanium handle and ceramic bearings in the lid hinge. MSRP is only $2,499, and the best thing is it comes with huge Zipp decals that tell everyone you've got more money than sense.

So whatcha got? Post your bucket choices here!

The Bear's camo bucket is my personal favorite. It has a swivel seat. FUN in transition!

Crap ... FIVE pages on the finer points of the transition bucket debate?  What?! Is everyone tapering at the same time?

Craziness.

When I started the thread about buckets in transition this is what I had in mind.  Too big?

This one should do the trick. Just make sure to remove the champagne bottle before sitting.

Good thing those are in cans beause Bear "or another USAT official catches you in the transition area with glass containers, you're DQed, buddy. Leave the beer in the car."

... but the cigarettes in the bottom right part of the picture are perfectly legal according to USAT rules.
