Rapha is running a sale right now on baselayers and some jackets, picked up the softshell baselayer I'd been eyeing up...

fwiw- pro team jacket is also in the sale, can't recommend that piece highly enough for this time of year.[/raphawhore]

Not the lightest shoe in my collection, but I'm looking for the best fit. 285gr in 42 with carbon Speedplay sole (so I can finally toss out the adapter plate and the stack height that goes with it).

I am sure you 'll love them. Light, super stiff sole and one of the best heel support designs.

Excellent. Did a 3hr ride today with them. Can't fault anything so far (first shoe with that luxury in a while).

Pete, I think you'll like those gloves. Work great for me between 25-38F.

Shimano Dura Ace C24 wheel-set. There seem to be everything they are written to be. Light, stiff and very comfortable. Like them.

^ Sweet! I heard 16th was they are in store. I'm tempted in a pair when they come out with more colours.

My set has moved to my 3rd bike and is still doing great. Little wider would be cool but not hurting my ride.
