Tri bike converted to fixie nice, One question, What is in the Tupperware taped to the aero bars? Lunch?

you ride this beast for commuting?

At least once a week. I rotate with my road and cx bikes to break the monotony.
There are not too many hills and traffic lights in my 23miles commute, so it is a blast when I don't need a backpack.
