It has never had that effect on me before today.

Puts me on my @ss too.

and the stock market is loving Lulu right now as well, analyst have upgraded it to a "buy".  although, not sure I'd hop on this stock now.  Where's Bryan when you need him???? Karen and Kelly, keep spending your money on Lulu, it'll make the investors more money!!

Yes, all of it is way, way too expensive for my budget.  The clothes are great....just wish they were cheaper.  Family of 6 = discount clothing for mama  

I've been putting a couple squirts of saline up both nostrils before swims, and I've found it to help a little.  

Here's the kit design (well the top).

I wanted white shorts but I've been informed that's a bad idea.  I'm thinking black shorts with blue stripes down the side and blue bands.  Thoughts?

Random aside the hedgehog's name is Eisel.

Agree with white shorts not a good idea.  Black with blue down the sides sounds much better.

Question on the top - is that the front or back?  If that's the front, what does the back look like?  (You should put the spiky hedgehog on the back.  He's cute!)

That's the front.  The back is a racer back.  I love the spiky hedgehog (Rudy says he looks like an aero helmet with a mohawk).

That looks great, Kelly!

Just back from my second ride on my tri bike...I'm digging it

That looks sweet Kelly!

Since we are on apparel...I don' t have cycle top. I either use a compression UA top or my tri top to ride in since that is all I own right now. Do most of you have a specific cycle top you ride in? Also for the guys what shorts do you wear for you rides? I currently just have a pair of Campari under shorts and my tri bottoms that I can ride in. Suggestions appreciated, Thanks!

I have about 10 cycling tops that I rotate through. For shorts, I wear either my tri shorts (have 3-4) or cycle shorts/bibs. Just depends on what I grab that day. I do try to use my bibs or cycle shorts for longer rides since there's actual padding. 

I would go with a black panels in the center and white and blue colored panels from the middle of your quads and around to the center of the hammie.  Here's a set of bibs from PI that have the look I think you're looking for.  Of course you could replaces light blue arc with the stylized light blue hedge-hawk .

I like those!

3400 done in the pool this morning!!! lifting this afternoon 1hr run tonight.

Kelly I like the Kit!!

Do people wear bibs for comfort?

I usually just ride in tri shorts and a tank top.  If it's cooler out, then I add layers.  I don't own a cycling jersey or any special clothing.  This is only my second year doing this, so I'm sure I'll accumulate some of that stuff over time.  I used to hate my Desoto 400 mile shorts, but I love them now, and I want to get another pair.    

Yep.  They stay in place better since they run up over your shoulders.  Also they give you a little support through the midsection.  Oh and they cover your lower back so you don't get the tramp stamp sunburn.  I like bibs, but mine are too big for me and I don't want to spend the money for good ones right now.

Hour thirty of intervals on the trainer this morning.  I'm beat.

Haha.  That sucks.  There are all of 3 waves in my next race.  Men 39 and under, Men 40 and over, Everyone else.
