Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Pearl Izumi thermal convertible jacket. The jacket converts to a short sleeve jersey.

I just bought one of the Magic Shine knock-off lights. I doubt it is really 12 lumens but it is very bright. It has 4 modes: high, medium, low, and strobe. The only negative thing I read in the reviews is that some of the batteries are faulty. But for $38 I thought I'd give it a try.

Nope. I preordered and waited for the UPS guy (not so) patiently.

Here's a shot of the back.

Good ol EBAY.

I missed out on a pair of Body Paint for $85 before and after I never stopped looking for anything that has Progetto X2 . Never ever buy anything with KISS3...what a waste of money.

Not my style, but congrats. IMO there are far better phones on the market (or about to hit), but I guess this is the best device running iOS. And if that is your cup of tea then congrats.

Not a purchase, per se, but decided to replace the 700c x 23 Bontrager Race Lites off my road bike with a set of 700c x 25 Conti Gatorskins that've been sitting on my "rainy weather" bike.

These bastiches feel a lot heavier than I remembered...
