How about a 2TB External HDD?
My Dish Network DVR's internal HDD is nearly full and with the Dauphine ongoing and three big tours looming, I transferred a bunch of recordings over to the external HDD to make room for the new stuff. I like to watch the footage while I am spinning on my trainer in the dead of winter or on days with nasty weather.
I'm pretty certain this qualifies as a cycling related purchase, no?

Got a CAAD10 5 back in January, and been riding it quite a bit since then. Should I stick with the stock wheels or get a set of Boyd Vitesses? I should probably e-mail the company about logistics; I don't wanna wait until next Spring when I'm actually in race shape to find out that their next shipment won't arrive until after Spring or something.

Salt Stick and Endurolytes, to compare the effects. Given the non-scientific nature of the testing, I predict that both will work for me just fine so I should just buy the one that's easier to find.

LIzard Skinz bar tape. A little pricey, but the best bar tape I've ever used. Love it.

I can even save you from sending that email! The rims just showed up yesterday and we are spending the first week with all of our builders working on just the Vitesse. We are hoping to catch up on orders and then have them built up and in stock. Within 10 days it's our goal to have the Vitesse able to be shipped within a day of ordering.

This Specialized Pro Floor Pump. Although I have a TREK Madone, the LBS assured me this would work on TREK or Specialized bikes (they sell both).
