The pad is somewhat similar to Castelli KISS; decently thin, decently dense (probably not as dense as a KISS..). Holds up pretty well on a 60-70km ride; I'll likely stick with the Castelli gear for longer rides, but for training/casual rides, it is better than any generic stuff I've tried.

My wife picked this up for me when we were in Milan last week. I haven't worn it yet - when do I where it?

I got a Timbuk2 Especial Raider Cycling Pack (backpack) from REI on sale. This is so I can ride my racing bike to work and back without adding anything to the bike. I rode with it for the first time today, and it felt good.

I have the exact same bag. They had one in blue and black combo as well but it went out of stock within a few hours of the sale. I also went in for this gold colored one.

My most recent cycling related purchase is a pair of Halo II headbands. Arriving today!

Finally took the plunge and got a pair of road shoes and clipless pedals. I have no idea what I was afraid of for the past few years.

1. Last week @ Stage 2 Amgen TOC finish on Metcalf Rd in San Jose I picked up a United Health Care Team jersey for $20 and a pair of free socks. Very good light weight summer jersey.
2. Bought a new Fizik Airone saddle to replace the Prologo that came with my new 2017 Orca M20Team bike.

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 :lol: 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!

Just bought a new saddle bag. The Shadow DX large. I love it. It took about 5 weeks to get it though. Bummer.

I won't need this for 6 months, but it was on sale 75% off. Sleeves come off to make it a vest
