Yup, he should frame the pump and buy another less artistic pump.

Although its winter (and has been snowing today) I found some good deals and decided to buy some clothing for cycling once it gets warmer:

Of course, I needed tights for the early spring and a wind breaker, so I got these:

And the Wind Breaker:

And then I got two complete kits:

They are all good quality and fit well. Also, if you want a good deal, all of them are, however the cavalo squadra 3.0 jersey is currently at just $25, which is insane. But overall, I'm happy with my purchase and the great deals I got.

These actually remind me of a pedal system in the early 80's, I beleive they were called aerolite, I cold be wrong but look very similar and I believe aerolite is still around

Been in the market for a new road bike so I decided to pick up a 2013 Madone 4.5 at a deep discount. Unfortunately I have a few months to ride it given the winter Minnesota is having but it sure looks great in my apartment until then! http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=363015

Where did you buy it from? Penn Cycle?

Yep, there is one less than a block away from my apartment.

What, you mean like one that actually works well?

2014 crux expert red,specialized pro xc shoes,clip less pedals,new chain rings and tires.

What are you saying? Are you saying that the Lezyne doesn't work well? if that's what you're saying then try this pump instead: http://familybikeshop.com/product/gi...p-184489-1.htm But I've never heard any complaints about the Lezyne.

My favorite LBS just opened their newest location less than 2 miles from my house. Now I don't have to go 25 miles round trip to get some tubes!

I was one of the first 100 people in the door today when they opened at 2 PM so I got a $20 gift card. Used that and some birthday cash to grab a couple things:

Ergon GP1 grips for my MTB:

And I finally got a 90mm 7 deg. stem for the road bike to replace the 90mm 17 deg stem that's on there now. I mistakenly got a 100mm 7 deg. stem awhile back which turned out to be too long, but I plan to use it on my MTB when I get some 31.8 bars.

New shoes, pedals, cleats. Team kit.

$$$$$

Wahoo RFLKT+ and a Hornit db140 horn haha

Hm, new SRAM Red OG 1090 cassette, new SRAM 1091 chain and a gaudy looking pearl izumi jersey (on closeout). That was last week.

TOnight, new Selle Italia SLR Flow max L something or other. I'm really looking forward to that one.

Record EPS V2 upgrade kit, can't wait for it to arrive. Sold my old dérailleurs, shifters and a couple of laptops I didn't need and got the whole kit for $1,700 as an open box item so my net cost was $400...:)

A set of Kool Stops, patch kit, CO2 cartriges and inflator. Exciting!!!

Thinking about a helmet upgrade.

Sidi Ergo 2 Carbon light.

New Origin 8 pro-fit compact bar and TRP ergo levers to upgrade the Merlin.

Ultegra 6800! (crank and chain not pictured)
I know what I'll be working on later....and then I can't wait for horrible ice crust to melt outside.

Zipp Vuka Sprint.

Nice set of tires.

6800 brake set!

I just picked those up but in 25c (but waiting for the current tires to wear out before changing).

well.........after four years of being without a car (my wife and I would share hers) I've been commuting exclusively on motorcycles. Took up cycling a few months ago, and tho my wife was a good sport about me always asking to use her car to take my bicycle to the trail, PLUS have a bike rack always on it.

I bought this...............it's a fun little car too. GOt a great deal as it was a leftover!

The upgrade begins :) Couldn't say no to $80 for a set of the ball bearing lever X9s
