Need to get a new Tri Top. I bought my last one on line and it didn't fit great but just dealt with it since I was doing short distances. Moving up to HIM distance shortly and want to be sure the top feels great so i would like to try on a few. Any suggestions on places that have a descent variety of tops?

There isn't much around in the Philly area, you might try REI, but we're also at the end of the season, so while stuff will be on sale, selection will be limited.

If you're an REI member, they have a no-questions-asked return policy, so if something doesn't fit, you can bring it back.

And, for longer distances, I'd recommend moving up to a tri suit, aka a "onesie". Much more comfortable than top and shorts, but different techniques for nature breaks.

Many of us do not enjoy the ‘pleasures’ of training on a stationery trainer. “Boring”, ”mind-numbing”, “a drag” are three phrases often associated with indoor trainers.
