surprising places you've found cycling stuff?

I found some PI Ultrasensor bike shorts at Building 19 once (or was it Building 19 1/2?). A friend saw them and told me to go there. The legs were shorter than Ultrasensors are supposed to be, so guess that's why they dumped them at Building 19.

As a result of this tread, I had to stop in at TJ Max today (not one of my normal haunts). I found a Cannondale sleeveless jersey and baggy cycling short with liner, both M which is what I usually wear. Both were way too big. So I went and checked the small section and found a shortsleeve Cannondale jersey that's a cute green pattern for $12.99. No shorts in my size though.

Does the label on the green jersey say "Leaf" ?

I wore mine today.

It does! Must not have been a popular color to end up at a discount store.

I was bummed about the shorts not fitting...

I recently bought a pair of Pearl Izumi cycling shorts for 50% off at a LL Bean outlet in Rehoboth Beach, DE. Also picked up a reflective cycling vest for $4.

I was the Japanese dollar store Daiso (well most things are $2) in Seattle and bought a waterproof nylon cover for my bike basket. They also had metal baskets for sale (they were more but less than $10), reflective bands, puncture repair kits, drink holders, waterproof hand protectors that fit on the handlebars and even an umbrella holder to attach to your bike!
