There’s nothing like cycling. It’s about freedom to ride. It’s about passion for hammering the miles away. It’s about blasting through the pain for a new personal best. It’s about the unrivaled joy of buying stuff. OK, just kidding. But there’s always some cool new gadget you can throw on […]
If you’re setting out for a long ride, run, walk, or even a kayak trek on the bay, keep yourself a little bit safer with RoadID’s new app. Take your friends and family on the road with you as you travel on your workout, and make sure they know where […]
For anyone with a bike, theft is a very real threat. When locks fail, Tile may just be the solution for getting back our best friends (yes, I mean the bike). After seeing the Tile advertised all over Facebook, I decided to look into just how helpful this might be […]
Earlier this week, Specialized treated me to their new 16 ounce Keg with Tool Wrap storage solution. As someone who has identity issues when it comes to carrying flat-fixing tools on the bike–do I mess up my bike’s clean lines with an ugly saddlebag, or do I stuff my pockets […]
Taking all the necessary food, flat repair, tools, and whatever else can be rather frustrating–especially if we’re trying to keep it aero.

Just when you thought the Madone 6 series was expensive, along comes the the new Trek Madone 7 Series. The top-end for Madones, Trek has released a bevy of features in what they claim is the “fastest” road bike out there. They’re pulling out all the stops with a lighter, […]
Perhaps the coolest accessory you can get for your swim, ride, run, or other activity is the RoadID. Fashionable, awesome, and just plain useful, RoadID is a must for any athlete–especially if you train on your own a lot. I have had my WristID Elite for a few years now, […]
You’ve probably noticed the “cheeky” phrases the Cannondale Pro cycling team is sporting across their bib shorts. “I’m a bull,” “I’m a snake,” and “I’m a chameleon” are great hooks for Fi’zi:k’s Spine Concept saddles. If you’re wondering what the heck these phrases mean, well you’re not alone in wondering. […]
Evie Stevens, Mark Cavendish, and Tom Boonen all have something in common–they’ve been winning lately wearing Specialized’s newest aero road helmet, the S-Works Evade. Specialized will officially release this product to the public this summer, and for the serious roadie or triathlete who could use several seconds in advantage–46 […]
You may have heard about new technology recently developed by the German company Gebio Mized that allows bike fitters to measure pressure points along your saddle. Basically, it’s a much higher-tech version of Specialized’s “butt-o-meter” that measured the distance between your sit bones, but this scanner offers professional fitters with a […]
I’m not gonna lie, I hate running. I consider myself a cyclist first, and triathlete second. But unfortunately, running is a part of triathlon, and in order to lower my overall time and stay competitive, I have to pretend I’m chasing the great myth of the runner’s high. To all […]
