Few pieces of gear can tame winter weather like a pair of Roubaix Bib Tights. The combination of warm Roubaix Lycra, the full-length, and extra midsection insulation can make five hours in 30 degree temperatures fairly tolerable. And anything that can make a raw winter day enjoyable is a piece of gear that we'll welcome into our closet.The Capo Padrone Roubaix Bib Tights use four different fabrics, each selected for the qualities needed in specific areas of the tights. The foundation of the tights begins with Thermo Roubaix, which is used from mid-way up the thigh and runs to the waist. ItAAAs noticeable due to the red-backed brushed polyester; the red shows through the garment a bit for a very cool visual effect. For the section that is roughly the length of a knee warmer, a material called Dream is used. This fabric gives a silvery sheen and is windproof and waterproof. This is logical since the worst of the road spray you'll experience bombards your knees and feet. A fabric called Thermolite is used for the upper portion of the bibs, from the top of the waist until the mesh of the bibs begins. ItAAAs a hollow-core fiber and does a superior job of trapping air while wicking moisture away. The bibs are cut from V-Mesh 360 to move moisture off you as quickly as possible to keep you dry and warm. These are what you pull out when the thermometer hovers near freezing.These tights use CapoAAAs top-of-the-line chamois, the MLDAC. It features a four-density design with a maximum thickness of 11mm in the weight-bearing areas while areas that bear little or no weight and need maximal blood flow are as thin as 2mm. This is a true all-day chamois with carbon threads for antimicrobial and odor protection. This Elastic Interface Technology pad will move with you whether youAAAre in or out of the saddle.Ankle zippers (15cm long) make getting into and out of these bib tights nice and easy, and eliminate the need to put your socks on before you pull the tights on.

The Volkl Chopstick Alpine Ski has twin-tip ELP Rocker to let you float, charge and smear your way through two feet of fresh, then head out to hit big backcountry booters after the lifts close. Thanks to the ChopstickAAAs twin-tip symmetrical design, youAAAll find yourself popping and spinning off natural features you never knew existed, while the multi-layer Sensorwood core and stabilizing Power/Tough Box construction bring the meat to back up your biggest lines. Extended Low Profile Rocker ensures the tips and tails stay on top of the deepest of deep fluff, while the ChopstickAAAs girthy dimensions and minimal sidecut help you stomp big drops and switch landings with confidence. Because the ELP Rocker starts closer to the ski center and has a more gradual rise, the Chopstick lays down its entire edge on groomed snow, meaning you can shred these symmetrical skis through the park between storms.

Dayton's department store, grand in scope and company spirit, enjoyed a century in the limelight as one of the nation's leading retailers. Its disappearance has been a challenge to the community, but it is a sign of the times, as many other urban department stores have shared the same fate. Originally called Goodfellows, the store got its start in 1902 when real estate investor and banker George Draper Dayton became a silent partner in the business. He soon took over the company but had to learn the ropes of retail as he went along since he had never intended to become a merchant. The early years were not without struggles, but Dayton's department store was nevertheless an instant hit with its daylight-filled aisles, generous return policies, and quality merchandise. The Minneapolis store became a vibrant self-contained community with a post office, newspaper, infirmary, laundry, bakery, and even a college. "Daytonians" worked and played together around the clock, in baseball and bowling teams, glee clubs, and orchestras. Over time, the reach of Dayton's extended far into the upper Midwest, with stores in North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin, including the development of the nation's first indoor mall. Minimize

Funny how what looked like a step back turned out to be a s ... Read more

Funny how what looked like a step back turned out to be a step up. Giro's new Prolight Helmet debuted on the stage to Arcalis in the 2009 Tour de France. It looked odd, as if Giro had given their riders a retro helmet for an important mountain stage. We were right and wrong at the same time. The Prolight shares a name with Giro's debut product, the Prolight, of 1985. But it represents all of Giro's knowledge in weight-saving helmet technology. The goal was to make a 200 gram helmet (and a medium weighs just that), a weight that is 2/3 of their marquee model, the Ionos. 200g is crazy light for a helmet. Even the old leather hairnets of the Merckx era would have trouble crossing this barrier. Giro did a lot of rethinking with this helmet. The changes aren't just the weight, though reducing grams was the point of just about every change. The Roc Loc SL, Giro's secondary retention system, is a completely new design. The obvious is that it saves 20g of weight savings compared to the Roc Loc 4. Elastic and non-elastic segments keep the helmet anchored to your head with a minimum of weight and fuss. There are three "snap baskets" at the forward ends of the Roc Loc SL that allow you to adjust how firmly it grabs your head.Giro also scrutinized the helmet straps. Their usual nylon strap material wasn't light enough, so they searched the world and found some thin Italian nylon strap material. It feels ribbon-thin, yet it's strong enough to survive impacts without ripping. The strap material saves 14g.The adjusting "Tri-Loc" buckles where the helmet straps join were also eliminated. Too heavy. The buckles are now no longer buckles but fixed points. As in, they don't adjust. But this shouldn't result in any worry that the fixed points will result in a helmet position that won't fit with your head. They studied countless heads and determined a position that works with most.Back to our memory of the Prolight. The vents were smaller. Minimize
