This week we noticed the TYR Hurricane Freak of Nature wetsuit, the Rapha Embrocation, the Arcteryx Trino jacket, a Bespoke doormat, a Zippo hand warmer, interesting cufflinks and a bike versus blades battle.
TYR Freak of Nature
What: The TYR Hurricane Freak of Nature wetsuit was announced at Interbike, but was not yet revealed. Lance Armstrong showed up with one a few weeks later at the XTERRA USA championships in Ogden, Utah. Now you can own one of these soft and pliant $1,200 suits.
Sizes: S, SM, M, ML, L (men) S,SM, M, ML (women)
MSRP: $1,200
Website: tyr.com
Rapha Embrocation
What: A warming liniment seems to be what the doctor ordered these days for our colder rides, and Rapha Embrocation falls right into that category. Made from warming agents winter green, capsicum and vanilla, you will have the scent of a European Pro when you roll up to that next group ride.
Sizes: 125ml
MSRP: $27
Website: rapha.cc
Arcteryx Trino jacket
What: The Arcteryx Trino jacket combines WINDSTOPPER® and stretchy Altasaris™ fabrics and it is an article of clothing that could serve you well during your next hard effort workout in colder temperatures. Or maybe you just want to look stylish going to the mall.
Colors: Black, Blue Galaxy and Citron(not in stock)
Sizes: S, M, L, XL, XXL
MSRP: $199
Website: arcteryx.com
Bespoke doormat
What: This is fairly simple. It is a doormat and it has a bicycle on it. What is not to like? Plus this way your friends can easily find your home when they are not quite certain of your street address.
MSRP: $31
Website: sprouthome.com
Zippo Hand Warmer
What: Zippo might be known for their nifty lighters, but that is certainly not all they do. The Hand Warmer are quite popular these days and they keeps those hands cozy when you are out the next time to watch that frosty cyclo-cross race or standing in line somewhere to buy Christmas gifts. Plus this Zippo gadget makes a great stocking stuffer.
MSRP: $19.95
Website: zippo.com
Phillips head screw cufflinks
What: So we continue with some non-cycling specific thoughts just in time for the holidays. These very cool Phillips head screw cufflinks certainly would be a bit of a conversation topic during your next business meeting.
MSRP: $175
Website: uncommongoods.com
Brownlee v Pistorious
What: Watch Oscar Pistorius battle Jonathan Brownlee in a very cool Blades versus Bike race filmed during the making of a BT Infinity ad.
MSRP: Priceless
