I did my first ride today with the SAS kit and it's really great.

The quality is top notch, nothing feels cheap.

I'm 6ft/208lbs and XL in both the jersey and bib fit me perfectly. The inseam on the bib legs is a good length, they end about 2" above my knees. I hate when the legs are too short. The back pockets on the jersey are nice and tight. I have my phone in there and never felt like it was going to fall out.

The padding is the best I've felt, but that's not saying much. It comes up to the front a little covering my junk, which I like.

Overall, great products. Will definitely be buying more from them.

Just bought a second hand 2013 specialized cyclocross bike. You know you're getting a good deal when the bike still has the pie plate, stickers and reflectors on it.

Ride Magazine Tour Edition. I find this the most definitive magazine for the tour out of all of them in the shops.

New toy for the CAAD. Excellent looking bit of kit... except the non-drive-side crankarm has a bunch of debris inside it and it sounds like a rainstick. Going to see if Cannondale will let me swap the arm.
