What We Have Noticed: Brooks, GU, Trix …
After a small hiatus we are back with a new issue of What We Have Noticed. This week we look at the Brooks Pure Connect shoes, GU Mint Chocolate gel, Trix baby bibs and hat set, the No Drop Zone book and our sub site We Noticed.

Weight: n/a
MSRP: $90

GU Mint Chocolate gel
What: Just in time for the holidays, you can enjoy a GU Mint Chocolate gel. Imagine Junior Mints or Thin Mints in liquid gel form and you get the idea. What is not to like?
If chocolate is not your thing you can try the new Peppermint Stick flavor.
Size: 32g
MSRP: $10.80 (box of 8)

Trix baby bib and hat gift set
What: There should be no surprise that this editor stumbled upon the Trix baby bib and hat gift set and was completely smitten by it. Made from organic cotton this gift set is an ideal present for the triathlete with babies.
MSRP: $30

No Drop Zone
What: Patrick Brady has written for Bicycling, VeloNews and Outside among many other publications and contributed as Padraig on the Belgium Knee Warmers site. His book No Drop Zone: Everything You Need To Know About the Peloton, Your Gear and Riding Strong has been available for a few months now and goes deep inside the mind of a roadie. If you don't want to stick out as a triathlete on the next group ride, this book might help you to fly under the radar.
MSRP: $19.95

We Noticed
What: Shortly after the 2011 ford Ironman World Championships in Kona, Hawaii we launched a new sun site called We Noticed. Unlike this news feature here, the We Noticed site is not product driven, but focuses on lifestyle images and videos uploaded by you and all of our other readers.
