Bike porn for today.

I have to give you the description of the bike in Spanish. Sexier that way.

Las mejores prestaciones conseguidas para una bicicleta de mujer se aglutinan en la DIVA, que dispone además de toda la tecnología de la exitosa ORCA adaptada a la morfología de la mujer. La tecnología Nerve proporciona una sorprendente combinación de confort y eficiencia, y el cuadro Size Specific demuestra que esta bicicleta se ha construido verdaderamente para ti. Para quien necesita de tallas aún más pequeñas tenemos la solución: la nueva Diva 46 con ruedas de 650 para acceder a la famosa geometría Dama de Orbea.

What’s good about a great bike is it’s a great bike and fun to ride, light, blah, blah, blah. The bad part is, can’t blame it on the bike anymore, and you got to go shopping for other bike gear to match.

And yes it’s ok if your bike costs more than your current car.  (not really but at least you have a cool bike).

Ok. This SwiMP3 v.2 player is pretty tight, for $199 you can play the Little Mermaid sound track or whatever you’re into.

Version 1 is pretty cool too (and you can get one from Nancy for only $50, this is one of her fundraisers).

The new SwiMP3 v.2 underwater MP3 player is an incredible audio experience. Imagine listening to hours of your own music during your swim workout. The SwiMP3’s innovative sound transfer technology offers exception underwater sound quality. Standard players rely on the transmission of sound through air or water causing the swimmer to perceive only muffled noise. The SwiMP3 uses bone conduction – the direct transfer of sound vibrations from the cheek bone to the inner ear – to provide the swimmer with exceptional sound clarity. The SwiMP3 is fully waterproof and can be used with all the competitive swim strokes.

Weighs only 2 ounces. We have removed the back control console. Easily Clips onto any goggles, without taking your goggles apart.

We’re going to geek out on swim toys, err…swim gear this week.

It’s Winter time and we still need to go out for our bike rides outside which means it’s going to be cold and wet.

So this is what you’ll need:

• bike skull cap or ear warmers are optional
• rain jacket or spiffy IronTeam jacket works or other bike jacket
• a bike vest works ok with armwarmers if no chance of rain and if you’re wearing baselayers
• baselayers, long, short or tank top
• warmers: leg and arm warmers (recommended); knee warmers are ok, long bike pants are ok
• nice socks
• full gloves (not fingerless)
• full shoe covers or toe covers (your toes can get really, really cold)

If you have any questions about gear, ask. We love toys on this team.

Part 1 - the Swim

Head - swim cap or skull cap, goggles (prescription, tinted or clear)
optional: ear plugs, nose plugs

Body -

• Long or short sleeve wet suit
• Some brands: Orca, Blue Seventy (Ironman brand), Quintana Roo, 2XU
• swim trunks or bathing suit underneath unless wearing tri-gear

Long or short sleeve? Most folks go with the long sleeve. Short sleeve gives you more range of motion. Need to consider chafing, weather, and feel when making your decision.

A middle tier wet suit is good enough for what you need for price/performance. The higher up you go, the better the feel/flexibility of the suit.

What’s New - a current trend is to wear swim skins for no-wetsuit-allowed swims

Feet -

• optional: Booties/swim socks
• If you get these, you are not allowed to whine when we swim in Aquatic Park.

Other stuff -

• Body glide. It’s better if you have your own stick of Body Glide.
