Trainers have never felt quite right to me. Between the angle of the bike, being elevated off the ground, the lack of realistic movement, and no road feedback, I’ve always struggled to properly bond with my trainer. On the flip side, gathering accurate data indoors is sometimes as elusive as […]
What side are you on? Chipmunk-cheek pockets or seatpost sagging saddlebags? When the Velominatti weigh in and rule against any bag disrupting the clean lines of our bikes, we cyclists listen. Or do we? Earlier this year, we did a study on cycling ettiquette by polling cyclists across several very popular […]
Last week at Interbike we previewed the latest cycling computer from Polar, the M450. In fact we were so interested to take a look that we made the crew at Polar cut their lunch from Subway short. Unfortunately, we can’t vouch for whether or not they were still stoked to eat […]
There’s nothing quite like the energy of Interbike–it could be all the neon buzz of Las Vegas with its abundance of gnarly (we’re stopping at gnarly). Sin City aside, we really enjoyed two days of outdoor demo and three days at the main show, and we wanted to give you a quick […]
Ever ride to the office in a sweaty wrinkled suit? No more. We ran into the folks behind the Henty Wingman at Interbike 2015, and we’re impressed by their clever garment bag for active travelers and commuters. Hang your suit or dress and clothes the same as any garment bag, […]
Power Meters are getting fancy these days. And the folks at RPM2 have found a new way to measure your wattage on the bike–oh, and on a run. Yah, I said on a run. Because now your insoles can tell you exactly how awesome you are. With this tech, you […]
Sea Otter, 2015. April and unseasonably warm. The cyclocross track cut straight through the pavilion with manufacturer’s tents and flags skirting the boundaries. I stood at the base of a ramp preceded by an s-curve that most riders completed by skidding to the dirt. There was so much blood. So […]
I know what you’re thinking right now. Isn’t SLO Cyclist just about road cycling? The answer is, of course, defninitely. We’re all about road. We’re all about the everything of road. But we’re using Kask’s MTB launch to announce a segue into the dirt path. No, we’re not going all-out […]
Periodically, we like to remind you of cycling movies and documentaries available on Netflix for those of you suffering indoors on your trainer. Because what better way to get motivated about raising your V02 max than watching professionals raise theirs on TV, right? Without further pomp, here are all of […]
I’m a lover of all things chocolate: cookies and brownies especially (just ask my wife why I like to eat at Subway–those sandwiches ain’t really that tasty). For me to find a nutrition bar that tastes this good and is made with all natural and organic ingredients is a mega […]
Velo Saddles unveiled their new line at this year’s Sea Otter Classic and we’re impressed! At first glance the saddles while nice looking didn’t appear much different than most sleek road saddles currently on the market. But on closer inspection there are some really unique design advances at work in […]
Introducing our resident triathlete, graphic design guru, and soon-to-be newbie cyclo-crosser, Shane. In his very first article for SLO Cyclist–he’s been the one in the background making things look legit around here–Shane reviews the BackBottle. Let him know what you think, and feel free to encourage his efforts in the written […]
