With the recent bursts of nice weather, the cyclists have returned to the lakefront in small numbers. I've locked my bike in the trainer and pumped up the tires so I can get some time in indoors before joining them. Plus, I need the weather to warm up a bit more.
All of this leads to the usual thoughts of buying some new biking stuff. I'm happy what I've got, although another jersey would be nice. Oh, and a new set of brakes.
Saw the Catlike Whisper helmet on a couple of teams in last year's tour. Check it out:
That's a pretty nutty design. Looks like half golf ball and half sea creature skeleton. Too bad they're not distributed in the US, otherwise I scheme up how to buy one. Sadly, they sem to run $200 or so based on the stuff I've seen on a couple of UK bike sites.
