Club Ride Vibe Jersey
The Vibe jersey is Club Ride's latest addition to their lineup. It's as much a casual shirt as it is a technical piece of gear, and it works as well on the bike as it does in a local brewery.
Five Ten Water Tennie
Five Ten's Water Tennie is comfortable in the boat, yet its Stealth Rubber sole still provides good traction for difficult portages.

Metolius Gatekeeper Belay Carabiner
The Metolius Gatekeeper is a very good cross-load-proof belay carabiner. (But just how useful is this safety technology, in general?)
Patagonia Freewheeler Max Rolling Duffle
If you've got to haul a bunch of gear, the Patagonia Freewheeler Max is a great option. And if you also have to pack some nice threads, too, the Freewheeler Max may be your best option.
