New I never should have got the other half cycling. Not the best but should do for her learning in.

Image Got caught in the UK downpours in this recent acquisition and performed well for a £35 jacket, wraps up small. Bit of a sweatbox once the rain stops though. On the whole perfect for my needs.

I picked up a used set of 2012 Mavic Ksyrium SL wheels on ebay. Arrived yesterday. Got a pretty good deal I think as they look fairly new and the owner claimed only used for 3 months. Much better than the Bontgrager Race Lite anchors.

Salice 006 compliments of ferrarista.

The Salice lense is nice. The blue is good and dark. The frame doesn't feel tight on my big head, but the sunglasses didn't shift much anyhow. I'll get used to it ... by comparison, my Giro Haviks absolutely crush my skull and my outgoing Rudy Sportsmasks barely put on any pressure. The Salice 006 model is every bit as light as my outgoing Rudy Project Sportsmask, but far more substantial feeling. Two-thumbs up. :D

You have to cut/make it with scissors. You can see on the photo that scissors are ilustrated

Salice 006 are nice. I have used a pair with the gray photocromic lens for two seasons now and I have no complaints. If I was to get something else it would be the Assos Zegho...

To those with the Salice 006 any comparisons to Oakley in terms of coverage? I have found the Radar Ranges to give the perfect amount of eye/wind protection for me, know how the Salice stack up?

I find the 006 to 'cover' my face/eyes in pretty much the same manner as my Radarlock Pitch from Oakley. However the Salices do maybe sit slightly higher. I have several lenses for the 006, including the polarized red lens, which is very much inferior to the Pitch polarized fire iridium.. the finish of the Salice lens has also been damaged by my sweat and appears somewhat less durable than that from Oakley.
