Default Please help, I need some grip tape

OK, I bought a used bike and someone tried to "fix" a problem my bike had. They basically tore off the grip tape. So I need some grip tape for my handlebars. I need about 4 feet. Where can I buy this? Is there differnt quality tape? What do you recommend for 1 hour rides?

Please help!

thanks

PS
Some instructions or links about installation also welcome

¿¿Is this good/bad/overpriced/excellently priced??

Macro Splash Cork Tape (near the middle) How's that price?

Should I get gel or no gel?

Those are excellent resources!
I'll study it religiously so I don't have to buy and 2nd roll. I picked up the Ebay Gel grip.

Thanks!
