You should list all the gear you've got in the photo. What have you up/downgraded since the photo was taken?

[naisme]

you should upgrade to a fixed gear

you should upgrade to a fixed gear

i certainly should!!!! i hate it when i get slush in the gears, and then i am forced to use one gear. and if its too cold, the cables are frozen stiff.
i have snaped the original casette, all the balls spilt out. so i "upgraded" to a 7 speed cassette (from a 6).

this bike is a TANK. i am thinking of buying a used lighter bike. and also my rear tire is way outa true so i disabled my rear breaks.

well i am wearing a polyester tshirt below. then ontop of that i am wearing a MEC flece bike shirt.
the outer shell is a MEC SuperMicroft Cycling Jacket

for my legs i wear my regular bike shorts (pearl zumi) then i have a MEC tights which have a too small ancle radius.

for my face, i am just wearing a bellaclava (sp?) with a runners mask.

i am also wearing shoe covers that work awsome to block wind to keep me warm and also works awsome in rain weather!

What about those cycling booties, the ones that seem to fit all around...are those from MEC too?

[akarius]

Lemme guess, the experimental farm or there abouts?

[Portis]

Are you running platform pedals?

[Blazinall91]

CCM makes bikes? they make my hockey stick

[lala]

Well done. Those booties look cool, err, warm.

[Turbonium]

not experimental farm. i am infront of my house in Aylmer (gatineau)

no i havn't thought of duct taping my helmet, i haven't felt the need for it.. yet.

yes, i am running platform on my winterbike. i don't think a ccm is worthy of clipless.

yes ccm puts their label bikes, Canadian Tire special crappy tank bike. but what do you expect for 200$?
