Zipp CX bar tape. This stuff is great, way better than Lizard Skin at a fraction of the price.

Got tempted by the nashbar deals and got myself a Sweat Gutr headband, Cavalo photochromic sunglasses and a jersey just to avoid paying for shipping
All for under $52

Was looking for some extra storage and convenience on 300k+ brevets, and found this Ortlieb bag. Waterproof and a clear window for that brevet card + directions. Plenty of room for sandwiches! Picked it up at REI for 25% off!

Been out on a few rides lately where it got below freezing. Nice warm jacket on the way. Like the black reflective patches too.

@znomit, I've had a Castelli jacket like that for a few months. I didn't like the price, but I sure do like the jacket, and now I have no regrets about buying it. It gives a lot of warmth and comfort for the small amount of fabric.

Tubeless tires
I bought a couple of Schwalbe Almotion 700/38 tires and mounted them tubeless on my Dyad rims using two layers of tape and Joe's sealant. Nice rolling tires and the lower pressures this setup permits makes for a smooth ride. I'm optimistic about the promise of no more flats but we'll see.
