What's the new 'epic'?

I've given this a lot of thought. Too much, in fact.
I had a dream that I was out riding with Diving Biker and we ran into this guy on the road.

I don't know whether to be honored or frightened by this.

Bikesnob NYC recently had some fun with the Rapha copy.

Personally, I think Rapha makes some beautiful things... Not only am I perilously tempted by the jerseys even though I don't like wool, I am seduced by the $45 cycling cap, the $15 dollar, 500ml bottles (currently happily using 24 oz bottles with LBS logo, maybe $5.99 each?)... And I am actually taken in by the copy...

But at the same time, Rapha doesn't exactly conjure up "testosterone" for me...

I splurged on Rapha wool socks at one of the Handmade Bike Shows. The most heavenly wool socks I own and that includes Dahlgren alpaca wool socks.

My tootsies are worth it.
