Thermos Nissan 26-Ounce Travel Companion Stainless-Steel Insulated Bottle List Price: $35.00 Sale Price: $20.94 |
|
Virtually unbreakable, this lightweight, vacuum-insulated thermos travels to work or recreation easily, and for hours afterward, coffee, tea, or broth will still be hot. Or lemonade, iced tea, or a sports drink will still be chilled. Tapered toward the top and slim enough (11 inches high, 3 inches in diameter at bottom) to safely pour with one hand, it slips into a briefcase or backpack. Pouring is a snap--twist off the cup, which holds 6 ounces of liquid, twist the stopper a few turns and pour through a no-drip slot (there's one for righthanders, another for lefthanders) without removing the stopper. Fine threading ensures the stopper seals tightly, while the exterior has a handsome satin finish. The smooth interior cleans with sponge or cloth, and preheating or prechilling with hot or cold water is recommended. --Fred Brack |

Hell on Wheels List Price: $29.95 Sale Price: $16.49 |
|
There may never be a better documentary about the Tour de France bicycle race than Hell on Wheels. Directed by German filmmaker Pepe Danquart (who won an Oscar® for best live action short film in 1994), this breathtaking documentary covers all aspects of the 2003 edition of the Tour de France, and it's likely to remain the definitive record of the event from an immediate you-are-there perspective. Outstanding cinematography, award-winning editing, and the extreme challenge of the Tour make this a truly unforgettable film, full of real-life drama and fascinating competitors who bring a deeply human dimension to cycling's annual extravaganza. This was the year that American cycling legend Lance Armstrong won his fifth consecutive Tour de France victory, but Danquart's film wisely avoids overemphasis on Armstrong's dominance, focusing instead on German teammates Eric Zabel and Rolf Aldag, whose 11-year history as Tour de France roommates lends the film a more personal quality that gets you right inside the Tour's physical and psychological endurance test. The July 2003 event marked the Tour's centenary celebration, and French scholar Serge Laget provides valuable perspective on the race's cultural importance in France, with vintage film clips to illustrate how the grueling 2,500-kilometer Tour has evolved--and stayed the same--throughout its 100-year history. Highlights are abundant (including Armstrong's nearly devastating crash late in the race), but Hell on Wheels goes beyond basic sports reportage to achieve the dramatic impact of a feature film. Danquart strikes a satisfying balance between beautiful travelogue footage of the French countryside (including the Tour's scenic stages in the Pyrenees mountains) and the veteran's perspective of Zabel, whose honest assessment of his own cycling abilities makes you realize that even great cyclists view the Tour with awe, fear, and inspiring courage. In capturing the beauty, pain, and glory of cycling's most daunting competition, Hell on Wheels caters to a specific audience while retaining its universal appeal as a colorful and exhilarating film that anyone can enjoy. --Jeff Shannon Go behind the scenes with the riders of Le Tour de France, the most prestigious and physically punishing bicycle competition in the world. See the fear, courage and pain up close, following such illustrious competitors as Lance Armstrong, Erik Zabel, Jan Ullrich, Tyler Hamilton, Alexandre Winokurow, and others, as they navigate magnificent landscapes and push their limits to the breaking point. Not just for biking enthusiasts, this gripping documentary offers an inside look at not just the competitors, but also the managers, fans, and everyone who plays a part in this spectacular event. 123 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: German; Subtitles: English. In German with English subtitles. |

The Road to Getting on the Road With Your New Motorcycle
Before committing to a big purchase such as a new motorcycle, do your homework. There are literally hundreds of different makes and models on the market and you'll want to be as informed as possible, as well as having a good idea what sort of motorcycle you want. From small off-road bikes meant for trails to large street bikes, there are a lot of options, and a lot of research to be done. Your local library and of course, the internet are both good sources for gathering the necessary information, as are motorcycle dealerships themselves. Make some inquiries to get an idea of prices and what models may be the best for you.
Your local DMV can give you information and instructional materials about motorcycle drivers licensing. You'll learn much about riding a motorcycle and of course, taking your motorcycle driving test as well. There will generally be a written exam (though in this day and age, this portion of the testing may well be taken on a computer) along with a road test where you will have to demonstrate your understanding of the rules and regulations to a tester. Some locales require obtaining a learner's permit prior to taking the test for a motorcycle drivers license.
Completing a motorcycle safety course could be one of the best things you could ever do, and may even save your life someday. You'll learn things that the DMV materials won't cover, and have a chance to learn from the pros. Inquire with your area dealerships as to when classes are being held; they are generally knowledgeable about schedules for such classes. Failing that, your state DNR may offer motorcycle and four wheel drive safety courses. Community colleges and university extensions are also good places to ask, they sometimes offer classes and seminars on motorcycle safety.
Appropriate protective gear is a must. Helmet, gloves, jacket, pants and steel toed boots are all important to your safety on the road. Most vital is your helmet. Be certain to do some research on helmets and talk about it with the salesperson at your bike shop; which type of helmet you need depends in part on what sort of bike you'll be riding. This lifesaving piece of equipment should fit snugly, yet not pinch you and have no gaps. The sales staff at your shop can help you find a helmet that fits you like a glove.
Lastly, insure your motorcycle. Rates and plans vary by location, as do laws on how much insurance you are required to purchase for your motorcycle. Your insurance agent can help you navigate the intricacies of local motorcycle insurance regulations.

What kind of used bike would you recommend for commuting and exercise?
I'm looking for a used bike that I can ride to class (1-2mi) and ride on paved bike trails for exercise. What kind of bike should I be looking for? I'm not looking to spend a lot because I am a poor college student. I've been looking at Mt. Bikes, BMX, and Road Bikes...which kind would be better....pros cons?
The most important words in your question were "poor college student." You will get the most for your money by finding a used hard tail mountain bike just because there are lots of them around. They are good for the kind of riding you've described. After you've worn out the tires on the bike, replace them with slicks. If you hit the bike shop sales just right you can find mountain bike size slicks for about $7 each.
Test ride any bike you're considering until you find one that fits and feels well. You can ride any bike that fits within reason for just a mile or two. However, longer rides on the paved bike trails could be quite uncomfortable if the bike doesn't fit you.
I don't think BMX bikes are appropriate for what you've described. Road bikes will work, but they are more expensive and more fragile than the hard tail mountain bikes.
