Not a Sunday evening, but right in the middle of a weekday, a pile of familiar-looking cardboard boxes arrived from overseas.
Taking a look at the invoice, they were from the Los Angeles-based Team Dream Bicycling Team! First, let me introduce the bottles.
・TEAM DREAM BICYCLING TEAM Japan Bottle
・TEAM DREAM BICYCLING TEAM Harlequin Bottle
・TEAM DREAM BICYCLING TEAM Bootleg Bottle
・TEAM DREAM BICYCLING TEAM Cub House Cool Bottle
・TEAM DREAM Cow-a-Bunga Cool Bottle
・TEAM DREAM Greetings From California Bottle
¥1,980~2,200 (tax incl.)
A total of six types of bottles have arrived.
Summer has passed, but you still get thirsty when you head out for a ride. For a 2-3 hour ride, carrying two 22oz bottles or one 26oz bottle is just right. (Although, during summer, hydration is a must.)
Bottles are a must-have even in autumn.
And the one to watch is the Bootleg Bottle.
The Katakana logo on the Celeste and Royal Blue colors is actually a misprint.
It seems there was a mistake when submitting the design, and the left half of the Katakana character "ba" (バ) was cut off.
Taking advantage of the missing consonant, they released it under the pretense that the bobcat is saying " i cycling team."
That's a cool way to add a bit of humor.
Also Clothes
・TEAM DREAM BICYCLING TEAM Cow A Socky’s
・TEAM DREAM BICYCLING TEAM Checker Socks
¥2,200 (tax incl.)
TEAM DREAM BICYCLING TEAM Packable Caps
Color: Brown, Royal, Red, Green, Navy, Grey, Black
¥5,280 (tax incl.)
TEAM DREAM BICYCLING TEAM Hooded Sweatshirt
¥8,580 (tax incl.)
In addition to the familiar socks, caps and hoodies have also arrived.
Made from a durable, packable taslan material, these caps are highly practical and come in handy for cycling and hiking.
With mornings and evenings starting to feel a bit cooler, the hoodie is surely waiting for its turn.
It features stretch material on the sides, making it easy to take on and off, and is perfect as post-ride or post-race wear.
Let's get dressed in some new gear and go feel the autumn breeze!
A little aside, this bike that sometimes appears as a model on the product pages is apparently the actual bike used by Éric Boyer, who won three stages in the Giro d'Italia.
Riding a Grand Tour racer's bike on dirt might seem unusual, but it's great how they're fully enjoying the terrain.
The way they play is stylish, but I also took my hat off to the way they matched the bottles and socks in that post.
