Here’s a few things I came across this week worth a mention.

Welcome to Warm Showers
“Welcome to the Internet Warm Showers List. The Warm Showers List is a list of Internet cyclists who have offered their hospitality towards touring cyclists. The extent of the hospitality depends on the host and may range from simply a spot to pitch a tent to meals, a warm (hot!) shower, and a bed.”

Gmap Pedometer
You’ve probably seen this already, but if you haven’t go check it out for sure. Record your routes/rides for easy reference. You can also toggle mileage and elevation. Pass any good rides along, and I’ll put them up under the rides section.

Recycled bike part gifts
“The idea for Resource Revival sprung from my imagination in 1991 when I got a flat tire while biking to my recycling job. In 1994 I started shipping my first products from a corner of my bedroom. Today we are a team of artists, designers and customer service people recycling thousands of pounds of used parts and shipping to customers all over the world.”

The clocks and candle holders are my favorite.

Microcosm Publishing
“Microcosm Publishing is an independent publisher and distributor based in Portland, OR. We distribute ideas through zines, books, pamphlets, stickers, buttons, patches, t-shirts, films, and more, as well as manufacture custom 1″ buttons and vinyl stickers. ”

This is more for the bike related buttons/stickers. Good stuff.

Tour of California
If you’re into racing, the Tour of California starts tomorrow. ESPN2 has hourly wrapups of the days action. Looks to be mostly showing at 10pm PST
