The Sirui T-025 5-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod with C-10 Ball Head is an excellent camera support for travelers who need a compact, lightweight, and stylish tripod & head combo. With upward-folding legs, it collapses to just 11.8" with the head attached and weighs just 1.8 lb. Supporting loads up to 12.8 lb, the head & tripod are plenty capable of supporting any DSLR camera with most lenses, as well as any point & shoot or compact camcorder. It's also extremely well-suited for mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera models. Constructed of 8x carbon fiber, the T-025 features silicone twist locks for easy setup, and with all four leg stages and the center column fully extended, the tripod reaches a maximum height of 54.6" with the head attached.

With an Arca-style quick release platform, the head accepts plates from many manufacturers, including Sirui itself, Acratech, Foba, Graff, and Wimberley (quick-release plate included). Forged aluminum results in stronger components than the traditional casting process that's often used for tripod chassis. Forging leads to more compacted metal and enhances the integrity of metal grains so they remain consistent and continuous. This leads to a longer product life and better performance Anodized surface treatment on the tripod's metal parts makes the T-025 tripod highly resistant to wear & tear, scratches, and corrosion, thus increasing its durability Three leg-angle positions (23°, 52° & 80°) - each leg can be set independently for use on uneven terrain Center column can be inverted for ultra-low-angle shots & macro photography C-10 ball head has a roundness tolerance within 0.01mm of a perfect sphere Center column hook allows you to add a ballast for a sturdier setup in windy conditions |

Amazon.com Bicycle Buying Guide Finding the Right Bike To really enjoy cycling, it's important to find a bicycle that works for you. Here are some things to keep in mind when you're in the market for a new bike: The Right Ride In general, bikes are broken down into three major categories: Road and Racing Bikes--As a general rule, road and racing are built for speed and longer distances on paved surfaces. Thinner tires, lightweight 29-inch (700c) wheels, and drop bars that allow for a more aerodynamic position are the norm. Most road bikes, regardless of price, offer many gears for tackling both hilly and flat terrain. Mountain Bikes--With their larger tires, hill-friendly gearing, and upright position, mountain bikes are very popular for all types of riding, both on pavement and off. Mountain bikes that are designed specifically for rugged trail use typically feature a suspension fork. Some may have rear suspension, as well. A quick change of the tires on any mountain bike--even one that you use regularly on trails--adds to its versatility and makes it a worthy street machine. Comfort/Cruiser Bikes--For tooling around on bike paths, light trails, or for cruising a quiet beach-side lane, comfort/cruiser bikes are the ticket. With a super-relaxed riding position, padded seats, and limited or no gearing, these bikes are made for enjoying the scenery and having fun with the family. The Right Price A bike's price boils down to three essentials: frame materials, bike weight, and component quality and durability. Entry-level--You'll find a wide range of comfort and cruiser bikes in this category, as well as some lower-end mountain bikes and road bikes. Most will have steel frames and components that are designed to last for several years with frequent use. Mid-range--Bikes in this range may feature a lighter aluminum frame with mid-range components that keep performing after miles of use. If you're looking for a quality bike that is relatively lightweight and will stand up to abuse, this is the "sweet spot." Most serious commuter and touring bikes fall into this category, as do mid-range mountain bikes with a decent front suspension. High-end--Racers and serious enthusiasts who expect lightweight, high-performance components will want to stick to this category. For road bikes, exotic frame materials (carbon fiber, titanium) and ultralightweight components can add thousands to the price tag. Mountain bikes in this class often feature advanced front and rear suspension technology, as well as components designed to handle lots of rugged trail action. The Right Size Fit is crucial for comfort, control, and proper power and endurance on a bike. Here are some basic bike fit tips: Stand-over Height--To find out if a bike's overall height fits your body, measure your inseam. Next, determine how much clearance you'll need between your crotch and the top tube of the bike. For a mountain bike, you'll want three to five inches of clearance. A road bike should offer between one and two inches of clearance, while a commuter bike should have two to four inches. Compare the stand-over height for a given bike to your measurements (inseam + clearance) to determine the right bike height. Top Tube Length--You can measure your torso to get a good estimate of proper top tube length. First, make a fist and extend your arm. Measure from the center of your fist to the end of your collarbone (the part that intersects your shoulder). Next, measure your torso by placing a book against your crotch with the spine facing up. Measure from the spine to the bottom of your throat (the spot between your collarbones). Finally, add the two measurements (arm length + torso length), divide the number in half, and subtract six inches. This is your approximate top tube length. Compare this number to a bike's posted top tube length. You can allow for about two inches longer or shorter, as most bikes can be adjusted via stem length/height and saddle fore/aft position to make fine adjustments to the fit. Bikes for Women--Proportionally, women tend to have a shorter torso and longer legs than men. Bike makers design women's bikes that offer a shorter top tube and many comfort/cruiser bikes built for women may also provide more stand-over clearance. The Right Accessories When you make a bike purchase, don't forget these crucial add-ons: Helmet (this is a must!) Seat pack Lock Hydration pack, or water bottle and bottle cage Spare tubes Portable bike pump Gloves |

Featured Article:

The 26 Mountain Bike is basically created for off-road cycling. The term 26 was derived from the size of the wheels that these models commonly use. Whether you are headed out for the rocky mountainside, the steep and sloping, muddy dirt tracks or the tree laden woodlands, this bicycle will definitely get you where you need to go.
The frames and other components of a 26 Mountain Bike is often made out of high grade materials such as titanium, carbon fiber, space age alloy and many more and can withstand intense riding conditions off road or on semi-concrete paths. These bikes also use wider rims and tires designed to absorb high impact, provide excellent traction and shock absorption on loose or uneven terrain.
Some of the top brands of a 26 Mountain Bike are Cannondale, Giant, Specialized, Fox, La Pierre, GT, Trek, Scott and many more. These can also be categorized into 4 subtypes depending on their suspension systems namely, the Hard Tail, Soft Tail, the Fully Rigid, and the Dual or Full Suspension.
These bikes also come with different riding classifications like the Cross Country, Downhill or the Freeride. Bikes for these riding purposes also come with different designs and components for optimum performance. In fact, compared to the usual V-Brakes, with rubber pads or 'shoes' in the past some 26 Mountain Bikes now make use of Disc Brakes similar to those used in motorcycles.
Regardless of which design you want to use or purchase one thing remains true to this extreme pedal powered sport, that is human ingenuity. And innovation has no limits, even in the cycling world.
In addition, when engaging with this kind of activity, safety is always a priority, thus proper protective gear should be worn such as helmets and pads and preparations should be undertaken to ensure a hassle and injury free experience.
I enjoy riding my Mountain Bike and just feel the wind rushing through my face. It's a great way to exercise and get around too. So far, from the many that I've tried, the 26 Mountain Bike has been the most reliable and fun ride that I've had.
Tips For Your First Triathlon
The first time you try anything is going to be daunting or at the very least, a little nerve wracking. However, with a little planning and preparation you can ensure your first triathlon runs smoothly.
The first tip is not to purchase lots of expensive, professional gear. Quite the contrary in fact, the first tip is to stick with what makes you comfortable and avoid wasting money on what could be your first and last triathlon. Don’t worry about this, every race includes novices just like you, and most of them will be competing with basic equipment and kit. If you can borrow a carbon fibre, custom bike then great, but your regular mountain bike will do. You can purchase high quality, relatively inexpensive outdoor gear such as wetsuits, drink bottles and footwear from outdoor online retailers.
Preparation
Training
- Train for the distance of your event. Beginners should start off with the sprint event (400m to 750m swim, 20km bike, 5km run) and try to improve their times for these distances.
- Give yourself at least eight weeks to prepare for your event.
- Train across all three disciplines every week rather than focusing too much on your weakest leg.
- Vary your workouts to prevent boredom and de-motivation setting in. Try running a different course or running with a different running club/partner, training with a kickboard, cycling off-road etc.
- Continue to incrementally increase your workouts. Once your body gets used to a particular workout, your stamina will cease to improve.
- Add weights to your swimming session and try resistance training at the gym.
- Listen to your body. Overworked muscles will lead to injury. When your workouts start to feel easier, you’re ready to push your body that bit further, but not beforehand.
- Maintain a healthy diet with lots of protein to assist your muscle recovery.
- If possible, try and train most often at the time the event will be on. You may feel more energetic in the afternoon, but if you’ve always trained after 5pm your body will get a surprise when you need to race at 8am.
- Practice the transition over and over again.
Planning
- Research sprint races and enter yourself so you have a definite goal to work towards.
- Research the route and know where the transition points are before the race. Memorise where your belongings are at the transition point as searching for your gear will cost you precious time.
- Educate yourself on the rules of triathlon so you won’t be penalized for faux pas such as cycling in another riders slipstream.
- Plan your training program incorporating 3 sessions each for bike, run and swim plus rest, weights and stretching.
- Get your race day equipment ready. Alongside your kit and bike, you should consider: nutrition (bananas, dried fruit, hydration drinks); sunscreen; first aid; towels (one for during the race, one for after); safety pins for your race number; small change for coin-operated lockers; repair kit and pump for your bike; Vaseline for chaffing and for a faster transition if wearing a wetsuit in the swim leg.
- Road test your equipment, and preferably in a similar setting to the race. Make sure your shoes are worn in, you’re comfortable swimming in your wetsuit or bathers, your goggles don’t fog up or fit too tight, your bike seat is at the right height and you have all your <ahref="http://www.cotswoldoutdoor.com"<outdoor clothing</a>
Now you’re ready for your first triathlon. All the hard work will be rewarded when you cross that finish line.

Ventana mountain bikes, what are your thoughts?
Basically what it says up there. What do you think of Ventana mountain bikes. I'm saving up to buy a new mountain bike, and Ventana is one of the contenders. I'm particularly eying the "El Chiquillo." This bike will be used for cross country riding and racing. The other bike I have my eye on is the Giant XTC Advanced, but I'm just not so sure about carbon fiber (in more than one way), plus I think I could probably get more for my money with an aluminum frame.
I haven't ridden a Ventana nor the XTC.
But, Ventana quality is top notch!
