    Where does a WV cyclist shop for cycling?

    Cabela's! Yep, I just got back. My partner said I needed to tell ya'll what I got so you could laugh like she did. LOL! She didn't laugh to make fun of me...I just look a little...um...bright. So here's the story:
    1. I needed baselayer so I got that (these aren't the funny part)
    2. I needed water proof...so I got a pair of REALLY bright blue pants.
    3. Warm wear, I had that, a red fleece sweat shirt type thing
    4. A bright, hunter orange fleece vest that fits over everything including my backpack....Everybody will see me now! Haha. As soon as I get batteries for the camera I'll take a pic...this is funny. Add my blue helmet, yellow road ID, green socks and I definitely stop traffic!
    See ya,
    Gray
    Incidentally, there is nothing wrong with shopping at Cabela's...it's my favorite spot for all kinds of things. I just think it's funny that everything is so bright!

    I love Cabelas! Sounds like you made out like a bandit, Gray, and now you won't get accidentally shot by any hunters (bonus!) and will be visible to cars. I picked up some really nice, high quality belts there. It's also where I bought my golden retrievers freeze dried pheasant wings for "retrieving" playtime.

    I didn't realize there was a Cabela's in or near Morgantown (I'm a WVU grad--class of '85!!).

    LOL!! That it is. There is a Cabela's just outside of Wheeling, WV. It's been there for about 5 years I think. They were having a pretty good sale going on so I did get some cool stuff. Oh, I also got a Case pocket knife on sale. Did ya'll kknow they are going out of business? That's just a shame.
    Have a great one.
