Wow what an awesome day today was! I decided that I'm gonna slog through the cold and try to ride so I'm slowly piecing together a winter wardrobe. Today my Descente order came with my new Shelter Jacket, Wombat Gloves and toe warmers.
The Shelter Jacket is soooo hot! The cut and styling are super flattering, the material is amazing, and I totally adore the the MP3 player pocket and cable routing. All the guys in the office were oohing and awhing at it. One even had to try it on. I can already see an office full of Shelter Jackets happening, and lots of girlfriends getting them as gifts. I don't think TE has the new one up yet, and I can't speak to the old one, but this one rocks! Sure beats the whimpy old Whisper Jacket I had that did little to no good.
Of course the Wombats are a classic and I can't wait to lose them, I mean, try them. I am so good at losing gloves.
Even better is I came home to find that my Tour de Cure jersey had arrived! It's super cute and I love the cut despite it being men's. They didn't put the year on it which is cool, but in a way I wish they had. The guys at work were mocking it and I shut them up by saying "Go ahead, mock the jersey I earned on a ride I did in honor of my grandma who died of diabetes complications." That quieted them down a bit.
Oh so much fun! Cannot wait to try it all out! Funny how new toys can inspire you to ride. Now I just have to decide on tights.
