1994 Paris-Roubaix: Slip, Sliding Away, as Victory Goes East (A Famous Cycling Videos Presentation) [VHS Video] List Price: $55.00 Sale Price: $29.99  |
|
(VHS Video) "Brutal", reported Cycling Weekly, was how Motorola's George Hincapie described the 1994 Paris-Roubaix. If it was brutal to ride it was sheer terror to watch. After 98 years, Paris-Roubaix has earned its title as "Queen of the Classics". In 1994, it added another sparking page to its colorful history, when riders faced the worst conditions in years, some say more than 70 years. This is the finest editing of the "Pascale" since the War, showing the courage and skills of the 48 survivors as they fight to be the best. The race is a true war of attrition which produces an outstanding winner in Russia's Andrei Tchmil, who gives the former Soviet Union its first win as riders slip and slide their way to Roubaix. A true classic. |

Brookfield, Illinois is real estate rich and a unique lifestyle community that many are seeking without the high price tag and real estate tax burden.
About Brookfield:
Being dubbed as the new "Oak Park" and only 30 minutes from Chicago, Brookfield offers a community "evolving" with many recent residential developments and re-developments with single-family homes, townhomes, condos and row houses that offer gourmet kitchens, loft size rooms, high ceilings, granite counters, extended outdoor living space with wrap around decks and porches with a modern yet vintage charm. There is future retail development including improvement of the Ogden Avenue corridor and a balanced village improvement plan.
Brookfield is bordered by Riverside, Lagrange, Lagrange Park and Countryside. All are neighboring communities and each one has something special and great to offer. Beautiful home styles from vintage Victorian, Craftsman and Bungalows to the modern Bi-level and Ranch style homes are a classic design of these areas.
The Brookfield area boasts many merchants including boutiques, eclectic restaurants, entertainment, wine bars/bistros and some of the top rated schools in Illinois. And not to forget, home to world famous Brookfield Zoo. Brookfield also offers great churches and recreation with family friendly parks and the Salt Creek Bicycle Trail, which starts in Bemis Woods South and continues east 6.6 miles to Brookfield Woods, directly across from the Brookfield Zoo.
Future Development:
With a nearby future development at Ogden and Lagrange Road, plans include for a mixed-use development, which will include multi-story condominium buildings with mixed retail segments. A successful retail sector means a booming housing market. Commute time via nearby Metra is a short 20-25 minutes to the Loop and the community is also located strategically near major highways I-294, I-55, and I-290.
So, what is the first thing you should do when starting your search for your dream home? If you need to be close to the city yet seek a Chicago suburban lifestyle you need to find a great local area Realtor®. Homes are bountiful right now; it's a Buyer's market. But if you do not know where to begin, it can be very overwhelming. Whether you are relocating from another state or another part of a Chicago neighborhood, you will need someone on your side helping you with market knowledge and an area expert.
Housing Value:
Ask yourself what you are looking for in a community? Finding a great home is one thing, but you have to consider future resale value when you go to sell down the line. The median price for a single family home is about $230K but Brookfield offers new development and re-developed housing as well. Does the community offer good schools? Village/community improvement goals? Good real estate tax use? Are these tax funds being utilized correctly with community development and improvements? Does the community offer a balanced residential/retail and commercial land-use make up?
For a community to thrive there are many elements involved and a leadership and community involvement that is important for future growth.
Brookfield is one such community. With goals being reached and improvements being made, the area is in the "baby stage" of boom.
If there is one place to start looking for a great home, it's in Brookfield, Illinois. Nice parks and next to forest preserves, offering great schools, churches, shopping and recreation, it's all here!

San Francisco: A Traveller's Guide
Diverse and dynamic
San Francisco's geography makes it one of the United States' most unique cities. The city lies between the ocean, the Sierra Nevada Mountains, the redwood forests and the California desert. Sitting atop the San Andreas Fault, San Francisco has been shaped by earthquakes - in particular the legendary 1906 quake and subsequent fires, which destroyed 80 percent of its structures.
San Francisco has more than 50 hills within city limits and some neighborhoods are named after the hill on which they are situated, including Nob Hill, Pacific Heights, and Russian Hill.
San Francisco is a bustling city rich in ethnic diversity, with an eclectic bohemian subculture and a myriad of languages, customs, shops and restaurants packed into its compact 49 square miles.
Getting to and from the airport:
San Francisco International airport (SFO) is located 15 miles south of downtown. The best way to get downtown is via BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit), which operates a direct rapid rail service. To get from SFO to Embarcadero (financial district), for example, will cost around US$8.10. The BART Station can be found on the departures/ticketing level of the International Terminal.
Taxis are also available and depart from designated taxi zones located at the roadway center islands, on the arrivals/baggage claim level of all terminals. Approximate taxi fare to downtown is US$40.
Story highlights:
- Get on your bike and explore San Francisco
- Cross the landmark Golden Gate Bridge
- Watch the sea lions from the pier at Fisherman's Wharf
- Visit the city's diverse cultural areas - Chinatown, Italian district and Japanese quarters
- A shoppers paradise for designer wear, urban sophistication and funk
Getting around San Francisco:
The best way to navigate San Francisco is via the city's public transportation system Muni, which operates nearly 100 bus lines, the streetcar system and the city's cable cars. Tickets cost US$2.00 and free transfer tickets are available on most Muni lines, which can be used for two connecting trips within 90 minutes (this excludes BART and the cable car).
If you're up for a hilly challenge, why not cycle? San Francisco is bicycle friendly and many residents do use their bikes as their primary means of transport.
The Embarcadero, Marina Green, and Golden Gate Park are popular cycling areas and many companies rent bikes, such as Blazing Saddles and Bike and Roll.
Taxis can be flagged along downtown streets or booked over the phone. Credit cards are generally accepted, but double-check before getting into the cab. Tipping is customary and drivers expect about 10 to 15 percent.
What to do:
Native San Franciscan Joyce Cohen, director of account management & operations for BCD Travel in the U.S. recommends a visit to the following sites, some of which won't cost you a dime!
No trip to San Francisco would be complete without a visit to the city's landmark - the Golden Gate Bridge. This suspension bridge spans the Golden Gate, the opening of the San Francisco Bay into the Pacific Ocean, and stretches 1.7 miles long. You can cross the bridge via car, on foot or bicycle and take in the magnificent scenery.
In the heart of San Francisco's Golden Gate Park you will find the de Young Museum. The landmark art museum showcases priceless collections of American art from the 17th through the 20th centuries, and art of the native Americas, Africa, and the Pacific. Adult entrance fees are US$10, but it's worth noting that the first Tuesday of every month is free.
Head down to the piers and sidewalks of Fisherman's Wharf where you can glimpse the sunbathing resident sea lions crowded onto pontoons. You will also find plenty of bay-view restaurants and souvenir shops nearby. Take a two-hour "duck tour" onboard a restored World War II landing craft for an excursion of the city by land and sea, operated by Bay Quackers. Tickets cost about US$35 per person.
San Francisco's Coit Tower is a 210-foot high Art Deco tower on Telegraph Hill. The tower contains 19 painted murals, most of which are open to the public at no charge.
Duck tour
The viewing platform at the top of the tower (approx. US$3.75 entrance fee) offers sweeping views of San Francisco Bay, Fisherman's Wharf, Alcatraz Island, and other area attractions.
Visit the California Academy of Science - complete with an aquarium, a planetarium, a natural history museum, and a 4-story rainforest all under one roof. It's an architectural achievement with hundreds of unique exhibits and nearly 40,000 live animals. General admission adult tickets cost US$29.95.
Where to eat:
With generations of immigrants from Asia and Europe settling in San Francisco, dining out is one of the city's great pleasures. You can enjoy some great classic Cantonese in San Francisco's Chinatown, which was established in the 1850's. Head to North Beach and you'll reach the city's Italian district. If its sushi you're after, then visit Nihonmachi where you will find a small but vibrant Japanese community - even the local McDonald's has a slightly Japanese feel.
Here are some of Joyce's top picks for dining on a budget:
Taylors Refresher Address: Ferry Building Marketplace, 1 Ferry Building, Space #6 Tel: 866 328-3663 Web: www.taylorsrefresher.com
For a cheap, cheerful and casual bite, head to Taylors Refresher. The "Eat" giant neon sign over the ordering counter gets right to the point of what Taylor's Refresher is all about. Grab your fill of burgers, fish and chips, sandwiches, tacos and much more.
Yank Sing Address: 101 Spear Street or 49 Stevenson Street Tel: 415 781 1111 / 415 541 4949 Web: www.yanksing.com
This restaurant is located in the financial district and specializes in traditional and contemporary Dim Sum, offering over 100 different varieties. Unlike most restaurants, Yank Sing has no official menu. Instead food servers carry freshly cooked dim sum, which you can request as they pass by. Open to the public during lunch hours only, it's a great place to pop in for a quick business lunch.
Pacific Catch Address: 2027 Chestnut Street Phone: 415.440.1950 Web: www.pacificcatch.com
Pacific Catch offers great fish and seafood dishes using local Californian ingredients, which are infused with flavors from Asia, Latin America and Hawaii. The reasonably priced menu includes dishes such as fish and sweet potato fries, grilled sandwiches, Island tacos, and Japanese rice bowls. Sit back, relax and watch the world go by.
Where to shop:
San Francisco is a haven for shopaholics, with numerous shopping centers, districts and malls. Although shopping in San Francisco can be an expensive venture, savvy shoppers will find possibilities for every budget.
Mural in Mission district
Union Square is a popular shopping haunt where you can find stores such as Macy's, Saks, Neiman Marcus, as well as designer boutiques. Street performers can keep you entertained as well as a visit to the nearby Theatres.
If it's urban sophistication or funky clothing you're after, then head to Haight Street. The streets are dotted with Victorian houses, anarchist bookstores and piercing salons, and some shops still retain an air of the 60's hippie counter culture. Another great place for unconventional items is the Mission district. Here you can find offbeat boutiques and funky ethnic clothing.
Fancy something with an Asian twist? Then walk through the red dragon gates and enter the bustling Chinatown. Complete with ornate lampposts and pagoda roofs, Chinatown offers everything from scented teas to vivid silks and statues of Buddha to mahogany furniture.
