I've given up on my preferred 8 mile route which included some MUP and trails for the old standard 6 mile route, the 8 mile route is closed for construction until "late summer" 2012.

I ordered a lot of cycling/commuting gear in the last week or so.

I decided that the O2 rain gear was a failed experiment in inexpensive rain gear and invested in, Pearl Izumi Elite Barrier Jacket, Turfers Full Monty rain pants, a pair of low rise Bogs brand boots, and Columbia brand waterproof fishing gloves.

Also I have finally purchased cycling specific gloves (fingerless), Pearl Izumi Select Gel.

I ordered a pair of Nashbar Canaan Baggy shorts and an AYL (rechargable) Mini Speaker as well.

I enjoy the little portable stereo speaker I found so much, I thought I might invest in a better quality speaker and see if I can improve the sound quality/volume.

Everything listed above was found on Amazon except the Bogs boots and Columbia gloves (Marshalls).
