  1. Hey all,

    I had no idea how much extra weight I was carrying. Good thing Nike has come to the rescue with a
    27% lighter "climbing jersey."

    -----
    Nike claims that their featherweight Hors Categorie climbing jersey is 27 percent lighter due to the
    use of ultra-light fabrics. We didn't weigh the HC jersey, but its gossamer feel and futuristic look
    will certainly attract attention. Armstrong and USPS will reportedly use this jersey in the Tour's
    mountain stages, while Nike will also supply this to the leaders, green, spotted and white jerseys
    used to sponsor the Tour De France.

    25% of this weigth reduction is achieved by lightening your wallet.

    Next will be an invisible climbing "skin suit" for maximum weight savings.

    If this were the software industry, somebody would have already filed for a patent on it.

    May you have the wind at your back. And a really low gear for the hills! Chris

    Use temporary tattoos for the ads. Sell the most interesting spaces for a higher fee.
