We are a group of biking fanatics that love to ride, and we think we should give something back to our sport.
Corgis tend not to get lost; being able to sniff their way home . Most people do get lost. Track your ride, including the way home, with this Garmin Edge 130 GPS computer. Giving you all of the usual bike computer metrics like speed, distance, and time the Edge 130 can sync to various apps…
Corgis are known to be stylish dogs…heck, the Queen has had over 30 of them. That is why Teddy is recommending this very cool bell from the Australian company Knog, the Oi Luxe. The new all-metal version of the Oi bell is much-improved over the old plastic one in strength and durability. It also sounds…
Hitch-type bike racks are easier to load and they allow the bikes to draft behind your vehicle improving fuel economy. The downside is that your bike is being continuously doused in dust, dirt and, if it’s raining moisture. Unless you own an electric car, your bike is also being exposed to exhaust gasses which contain…
From April 4th to 13th everything Trek sells is On Sale. Save up to $400 on bikes and all Bontrager accessories are 20% off (with a few exceptions: wheels and Garmin). So now is the time to get that Fuel EX or Checkpoint you’ve been wishing for…or any other of Trek’s road, mountain, commuter, gravel or e-bikes. Similarly…
When someone you know is really into something like, say, bikes and you aren’t it can be really hard to shop for them. Anything you get for them might be the wrong one for the type of bike or riding they do, not the current cool one, wrong size…it’s hard. That’s where we can help….
This week Teddy decided to talk about a helmet but really is more interested in the company Kali Protectives who makes it. This is the Lunati model from Kali and is part of their Enduro series of mountain bike helmets. Kali might not be a brand on your radar but is very innovative in the…
This week Teddy Choice is a product that is a bit less sexy and exotic than high-performance carbon fibre full-suspension bikes from Yeti (though Teddy himself is looking pretty good these days don’t you think?). In fact his choice this week is a humble water bottle cage. But just as for want of a nail…
Teddy is now 9 months old and if he had strong opinions about things before it is now doubly so. Now that he is a bit older his favourite activities include wrestling with his “sister” who is double his size, barking at passing dogs, cars, people…leaves…and short walks that take a long time. Patience isn’t…
Chain Checker It’s a little known fact that Corgi’s were bred to herd cattle and like other herding dogs tend to want to do that with people as well. You can tell they are constantly doing a head count. Due to the Spring rush at the Shop Teddy hasn’t posted for a while since he has…
Going on a long ride and/or it’s hot out? Have a bike that doesn’t fit a water bottle (Ahem! a Yeti that isn’t an SB100) then Teddy recommends the Camelbak Quick Stow Flask. Basically it’s a cross between a regular water bottle and a hydration pack bladder. The flexible material allows it to be stowed…
