Yakima King Cobra Bike Mount
January 6, 2009
It is usually the key that gets the number on it not the core. To get the cores out you should go to a yakima and thule dealer and ask if they have an uncut key this is how you get the cores out. PS they have to be unlocked to get them out.

I tried this jacket on in the store the other day and the hood seemed small for a helmet, so the answer to our Q would be no.

Arc'teryx Stingray Jacket - Men's
January 2, 2009
The stingray is a a little on the short side, but the sleeves run true to size. As far as getting cold, this jacket will NOT provide any insulation. You would want to look in to an insulation layer to go underneath. Try a heavier fleece or a lightweight down jacket to go under it.

DAKINE Heli Pro 20L Winter Pack - 1200cu in
December 27, 2008
I use it as my school backpack and it hauls everything just fine as long as you aren't hauling huge text books and binders.Although you see these everywhere on college campuses I would not consider this an ideal book bag. that is unless you like little room for actually carrying books and like your pens and pencils to be jumbled up in the bottom of an organized pocket.
