Minimalism. It’s something of a trend in our sport. If you’re packing light, you’re going fast, right? This philosophy has forced me into carrying the world’s tiniest multi-tool with four of the world’s shortest and smallest wrenches folded within it. There’s not really anything wrong with it. It works on […]
So if you’re like me and you’ve been riding the trainer the last few days, it gets a bit old without something to distract you from staring at the wall. And until Zwift officially releases their trainer-centric races (yah, I’m pretty stoked about it too), I’ve been watching my way through […]
