Effective July 1st, 2011 Thule Group closed its deal to purchase Chariot Carriers. Thule has had their eye on Chariot Carriers Inc for quite some time. Chariot is just one more step towards Thule's new goal of promoting an active lifestyle. Chariot Carriers is truly a unique comapny; it has made its entire focus outdoor transportation for children. Chariot Carriers are unique because they are so multifunctional. The consumer first purchases a carrier and then can separately purchase the accessories. They offer a variety of accessories: stroller wheels, a jogging kit, a bike hitch, a hiking attachment, and skiing attachment. There is also a wide array of additional accessories that make the carrier custom and most functional for each individual. The best selling point for Chariot Carriers is that it takes away the need to have multiple carriers for different outdoor activities. The attachment kits can easily be taken on and off to suit the outdoor needs for the individual each day.
Flamand Sports will begin representing Chariot Carriers on August 1st, 2011. Please look at the link above for more detailed information about this exciting acquisition. |

 Terramar Gear
by mtnmama
It all started withmy attendance at The Women’s Adventure Eventin September. I was lucky enough to link up with Terramar Sports, a leader in performance base layers.
I recently tested two items during my Thanksgiving trek up the Incline. The first was their Body-Sensors Terra-T, 100% recycled micro polyester long sleeve base layer. It was great! I had used it a couple of times as a base under my favorite UpaDowna T’s then put it to the test on the incline. It holds true to being light weight, fast drying and highly breathable. Talk about comfort, I couldn’t even tell I had it on. I wore this under a Saucony Optech SportTop which made the perfect combination of warmth, comfort and breath-ability. After our hour and 1/2 trek, my Terramar Terra-T was dry as soon as I finished my 2nd go round of Thanksgiving feast at the local pub. Fast wicking and comfortable as a second skin, makes this shirt one of my “go-to’s” this winter season!

 Winter came abruptly here in New England. Although snow was pelting the rest of the country, this area was sparred by the nasty wintry mix. Until of course, the day after Christmas, when nearly two feet of snow fell upon the region.
Climbing out of such a post apocalyptic snowy mess takes patience, discipline, and the right gear to weather the cold. Digging out of a driveway in indoor soccer shoes probably isn't the wisest of things to do. Neither is snowshoeing in a pair of sandals. Fortunately, Garmont has produced a winter snow boot for men who need to get out of their houses this winter. When cabin fever isn't an choice, there is the Garmont Momentum Snow GTX Winter Boots. Garmont, an arctic boot manufacturer based in Italy, has more than 140 years of experience outfitting winter sports enthusiasts with the right footwear to withstand the cold of winter. The Momentum Snow GTX Winter Boot isn't necessarily the apex of the company's work, but it's a good example of what strong quality winter boot construction can achieve. The Garmont Momentum Snow GTX Winter Boots features rugged leather uppers that, although breathable, require some break-in time before blazing those trails. Thanks to the power of Gore-Tex liners, your feet will be dry at the end of the trail as they were getting out of the car. Besides blocking water, the Gore-Tex wicks away the moisture from your feet. Those feet will also be super warm, because this boot is insulated with enough 400g Thinsulate polyester fiber insulation to toast toes in the Arctic Circle.
