The Relaxed Ride

Finally! After a week of treacherous downpour and winds, it's sunny and 60 deg. It's going to be like this the whole weekend! Perfect weather for a 200k brevet I'm doing tomorrow. Interested parties should check out Great Lakes Randonneurs.

In the realm of Rando/Touring/Commuter type things, we just got some pretty sweet items in...

Brooks Devon Drive and Non-Drive Side Rear Panniers

Brooks Cornwall Handlebar Bag

Fancy fancy bags from the beloved Brooks. Nifty way to hold your spokes and many other things.

------

Sugino Mighty Tour 170mm and 175mm

Talk about some fine Japanese craftsmanship! The cranks have the sheen of a Sugino 75. These have a lower Q-factor than the XD Triples and are great upgrade for your touring bike. Man, they are gorgeous.

------

SKS Fenders

Still made in Germany and a great price for high quality fenders. Easy to install and they just look so classy!

Velo-Orange Handlebar Bag

I couldn't resist, I had to get one! They will soon be posted. Check them out at Velo Orange. It'll be quite handy for tomorrow. A clear pouch for the map and easy access to my food or camera. It's going to be a great ride. Hope ya'll get some sun this weekend!
