    Best affordable sunglasses?

    I have Tifosi Ventoux and find them very comfortable. They are light weight and come with 3 sets of lenses for varying conditions. They were around $60 so while they aren't the cheapest, they are much more affordable than $300 Oakleys.

    The latest "which frame?" thread (so far)

    It sounds to me like you just said you want an Ibis Mojo. You could get the SL or HD 140. It has the 140mm DW-Link you ask for, it pedals great, and is a strong frame.

    Furniture and you

    We had furniture delivered to our house this morning. The salesman said they would be at our house between 7-11am. At 6:55 I'm feeding the cats and hear a truck outside.

    XC-specific pump track?

    It sounds to me you're more interested in building a skill building area. A pump track is intended to not be pedaled and the obstacles you describe would require pedaling. Building a skill building area would be great however. You could build an area with a rock garden, some low risk skinnies...

    Portable Phones

    I've always liked the VTech phones. Mine has been dropped in the pool at least twice and once it dried out it kept working. I'm like others, the landline phone is about to get dropped now that I have reliable service for the cell.
