ALL TECHNICAL PERFORMANCE APPAREL IS CURRENTLY 40% OFF!
We recently had an Ashton Kutcher sighting here in the mid-market neighborhood of San Francisco, and for some reason it got me thinking about how "dude, sweet" our technical apparel selection is. It's easy to get punk'd when you put on the lycra cycling shorts. From Plum Smugglers to MAMILs, those of us who dare don lycra are targets for those afraid to strut their stuff. My favorite jibe thrown my way came from a group of teenage girls driving along Lake Shore Drive who screamed "nice manpris" and giggled away. They're called knee-warmers you little brats! Whatever. I was kicking ass that day on a smooth Cannondale Synapse, and Mom always told me that when people make fun of you, it's because they are jealous. After all, they should be jealous--because any man or woman in poor to average shape willing to wear skin-tight sports apparel whilst riding a ridiculously fast road bike is a brave soul. If you ask me people should enjoy every moment of lycra wearing. Think of it like you are putting on a superhero costume. Kind of like cosplay without the lightsabers.Best part about these bibs--other than the price--they no longer say Nanoflex on the side.
This women's Castelli Confronto jacket is bling!
Check out this Cannondale Morphis Jacket -- the sleeves come off for vest action.
As the picture at the top of this post will attest, we have a LOT more technical apparel than I can list here. It is time to get your tights on and start getting ready for the riding season. This time do it right!
