Shure E2c headphones
I picked up a pair of these for cheap off of Amazon and they arrived today. I have been playing with them a little bit and they are pretty cool. It takes some getting used to having them jammed way into your ears, but the sound isolating design is really good. I am hoping that I can find a pair of the ear buds that are really comfortable and them I will be a happy camper. I have to say though they are impressive (coming from the iPod ear buds though, it isn’t hard to impress).

Up in Flagstaff this weekend
We’re up in Flagstaff this weekend for Tour de Fat by New Belgium Brewing. Here is a shot of me getting ready for the bike ride and a gorgeous shot of the San Francisco peaks with some snow on them. It was very cold this morning, low was in the 30″s! I love the weather here, but coming from almost 100 degrees in Phoenix yesterday to this was a bit of a shock.
Enjoy.
