Barf and Money

Get a load of these shoes by Bontrager. They have three flexes for the carbon soles; Gold, Silver and Bronze. Too bad they all make me wanna vomit.
Ever wonder where or what Oakley does with the $250 for the plastic glasses you buy? The “O-Lab”. What is this you might be asking, oh, just Oakley’s customized Freightliner and trailer. The trailer houses equipment for demonstrating the rugged strength of Oakley’s glasses. How do I get that guy’s job?

Shimano’s Pro Line
Posted by phillikw under Links, Reviews | Tags: Pro, Pro Line, Shimano |Leave a Comment
Pro? The first time I saw this line was the Tour of California. I must admin that I find it hard to follow professional cycling with the little coverage we get in America. Therefore, I have no idea that most* of the guys on tour are running these products.
It seems that Shimano is in charge of the brand and are producing them. I would love more information if anyone some. Take a look, as usual Shimano’s website for it sucks, but what can you do?!

Normal rear lights don’t give drivers a defined space to steer clear of. Well, this new gadget will…

CETMAracks

CETMA makes some pretty nice racks for the front of your bike. But what if a rack just isn’t enough, well they have produced their own cargo bike. I don’t know what it is about cargo bikes, but I love them. Somehow, under the massive load carry frame I find them sexy. Maybe because the serve the ultimate purpose of cycling transport. Whatever, it may be their new creation is no different. I looks good and from the views I have seen it works well too. Take a look…

Rollers are something a little different than stationary trainers. They look intemidating at first, but after a few rides you are totally used to them. You can even get up out of the saddle and push hard. If you look closely the majority of pro teams use them to warm up on. Take a look at the website.

I have seen these grips before. I am totally blown away by their website and products. It looks like they have a ton of options for road and mountain.

Well, I finally shelled out the $165 for my messanger bag. I have been reluctent to do so for the past year, but the freebee bag was no longer cutting it (aside from getting razed at the office). I have a business trip next week and called Timbuk2 on Monday to see if a custom bag would get here in time. On the phone, whoever, I spoke to was ultra nice and said that if I opted for overnight shipping I should get the bag by next Monday.
I am happy to say the bag come yesterday!!! I put my order in mid Monday and it was in my hands by 1pm on Wednesday. I’m still in shock. The bag is gorgeous and functional. It looks and feels like it could with stand all the abuse you can throw at it. The stitching is nice and neat and everything looks very well made. Hell even the fedex bag it came in was a map of San Francisco. I will certainly be buying another bag from them very soon! (the girl needs one…)

Well everyone I tried to take a test ride but no luck. My local Trek dealer still doesn’t have the District. I was hoping to have a review for everyone. All I can say I will keep trying to get a taste of the new beast and report back…..
