Helmet, glasses, gloves and padded shorts. Specialized make the lot, and they're hard to beat in my humble opinion. Helmets are a lot cheaper and better vented these days.
Hopes are a doddle to re-hose (as are most). easier for the shop to do of course (and avoids any contact with DOT fluids). Best to put new hose on as the runs are different lengths from each side. You don't want to have a short front hose, especially.
The second reason for getting a Civic was the Magic Seats. I'm sure loads of cyclists are drawn to the spaceship by them. As I posted elsewhere, I didn't see any at a triathlon 2 weeks ago though.
And my Stumpy says 'Hi'
