I'm looking for a 3-season (20 degrees) sleeping bag of fairly good
quality.  It must be made of a synthetic material since I am allergic
to down.  It would be nice if it stuffs well, and isn't too heavy or 
too expensive.

Can anyone comment on the sleeping bags offered in the Performance
catalog in comparison to, say, EMS bags?

Thanks,

I've been using Performance Durango MTB shoes with SPD pedals
since March.  The shoes are comfortable while pedaling
and have a fairly stiff sole.  They are comfortable for hiking off
the bike too.  The soles and uppers seem to be reasonably durable.
The big lugs on the sole provide good traction when pushing
your bike on steep, loose terrain.
Size runs about the same as street-shoe size.

Minor negatives: The deep gaps in the sole between the lugs
can get clogged with dirt, mud and pebbles.
The laces can loosen up while riding and need to be retightened.
The laces often snag in the velcro hooks for the leather flap which
covers the laces.  The fabric and leather uppers are not very waterproof,
even after treatment. 

I have a narrow foot and find that they fit me well,
but not everyone is happy with the way they fit.
Try them on before buying, if you can.

Since NiCad "C" cells are usually rated at 1.2 AmpHours and you are using
them for 2.5 hours per week, you can only be using a 0.5 Amp system which
at 2.5 volts gives you about 1.2 watts.  This is far too little power even
for a high brightness Halogen bulb.  To my knowledge most Halogen
bulbs run at about 1 Amp.  You could be using special high capacity
NiCad cells?

However, going back to the original question, NiCads are fine provided you
are prepared to carry a spare set (they really do go flat in an instant).
Buying two sets costs you no more in the long run, it just means carrying
a bit extra weight.  You should never worry about NiCads being rated at
1.25 volts instead of the 1.5 for standard cells.  NiCads deliver 1.25
volts right up until they are flat, standard and alkaline cells have a 
voltage that drops to less then 1.25 volts before they are ready to be
discarded and only deliver the full 1.5 volts if the power demand is low.
Standard carbon zinc cells hold about the same capacity as NiCads, alkalines
hold about 3 times as much.  NiCads go flat more quickly than other
cells if unused so they should not be used for devices used infrequently.

I went out this weekend looking for a set of clipless pedals and a pair of
shoes (time to move up from sneakers and straps!). In the local shops a 
decent pair of pedals seems to run about $145 (Look peddals, don't remember
which ones). The shoes i felt most comfortable in were running about $125
(pair of shimano's and a pair of avia's - nike's didn't fit too well). 

After some quick addition  - this is pushing real close to $300. My whole 
bike was  ~ $500 a few years ago!

After a got home without my new toys, i took a look through some catalogs.
Look pedals are going from $69 - $149 for the top of the line. Are the 
mark-ups at local shops actually 40 - 50% !? I'd much rather support my
local shop than buy through a 1-800 number. I'm willing to pay possibly
$20 - $30 over mail-order to support my local shops, but what i've seen
seems to be ridiculous. Is something like this common?


On a related note...

One of the catalogs has last years Look pedals in closeout. PP96 and PP76.
Where do these fall compared to the current product line? Are they equiv.
to the 196 and 176?? Any new improvements between the PP1x6's and the PPx6's?

I agree with Jerry here.  Something else to consider- Trek has a good 
reputation as far as frame replacement goes.  Especially if you're considering
non-steel bikes, (Al, CF may be more difficult to repair), you may someday
need to make use of such a replacement warranty.  If you buy the Price Club
bike, you may be throwing away the money you spent on the frame the first
time you crash it.

Hi!

I have been commuting from San Francisco to South
San Francisco (11.6 miles one way) and have noticed
all kinds of debris flying at my face, not to mention all the
new wrinkles I am getting from exposure to the sun and
wind.

Currently I wear tight fitting sunglasses with cat flaps.
Cat flaps (if I remember the term correctly), are pieces
of leather attached to the side of the glasses to "seal
in" the eyes from light.  However, cat flaps also impair
my peripheral vision and the rest of my face remains
unprotected.

What would you recommend as "face wear" to deflect debris
and ease wear and tear on the face? Where might I purchase
such an item via mail order or California (San Francisco
Bay Area) bike shop?

I'd appreciate your ideas.

Thanks,
Vivian

I just sent off a list of prices for the Miyata Elevation mtbs to
someone in Sweden.  These bikes have model names such as  Elevation 250'
or Elevation 2,000'.  In a fit of madness, I decided to plot out the
price (per Mountain Bike Action magazine's 1992 Buyer's Guide) versus
the "elevation".  This is what I came up with:

    Price = 0.163*Elevation + 448.62
    r^2 = 0.966 (!)

It looked like a log fit might even be better.

I'm going back to work now.  Really.  ...Joakim
