Anybody know a good shop in or near Albany, New York, that might sell
good XC eyewear (Briko) and/or good cold-weather workout clothing
(Craft, Pearl Izumi)? I searched the archive but didn't turn up much
helpful information.

Thanks.

Christopher

I would recommend going up to Glens Falls to Inside Edge/Reliable
Racing. It's a store that has been often mentioned here.
In the past, they have carried Sportful and Craft and I know they
still sell Brynje, as I get their catalog; so you should be able to find
something to wear.
As far as eyewear goes, I would go to an eyeglasses place that sells
Adidas.

Christopher -

In Albany (or the rest of the Capital District) I know of no one who
sells Craft clothing. Most every bike shop sells a wide selection of
name brand sunglasses, so that shouldn't be a problem. I'm pretty
sure Inside Edge does not sell Craft stuff, but call them -
800-223-4448/518-793-5677

Try High Peaks Cyclery up in Lake Placid for a complete line of
sunglasses and clothing.

You could also try the Craft site, which has regular and clearance
items - http://www.craft-usa.com/

Check out the Sports page in Glens Falls too. It's right on Quaker
Road and around the corner from the Inside Edge.

Thanks, all, for these recommendations. I'm going to try to make
enough time to get up to Reliable Racing while I'm out east.
