ALL SIGNS POINT ↑. This year’s tour route includes many of the iconic climbs that we all know, love and aspire to, along with a couple of beastly outliers that will be crazy to watch. In particular, today’s Mont du Chat is severely challenging: an average grade of 10.5% for 8.7km. We […]
KINGS AND QUEENS.
In the mountains, dots rule. Polka dot kits, accessories and utter nonsense permeate the cycling-centric month of July. We found some real delights this year… Circa Ceramica – handmade in Chicago Kask KOM helmet UV Buff/Headband Twinsix Socks Oom fit and flare Olivia Dress And of course, an […]
FLO’S COPENHAGEN WHEEL.
My neighbor, Flo, feels like she has a whole new lease on life thanks to an ingenious addition to her bicycle: the MIT-designed Copenhagen Wheel. Flo is not a hardcore cyclist, but is a smart cookie who works for NASA and has a ‘sky’s the limit’ approach to just about everything. She read about MIT’s […]

ALONG THE RHINE.
Yesterday’s Tour prologue in Dusseldorf had us dreaming about riding along the Rhine River and disappearing among the many vineyards. Leave it to the Europeans to have a 1233km Rhine Cycle Route that runs from the Swiss Alps to the North Sea of Rotterdam, crossing through Switzerland, France, Germany and the Netherlands. Much of the […]

BALANCING ACT.
How to get the kids rolling. Training wheels are a thing of the past. The new thinking in getting kids comfortable on bikes is to get them started on a pedal- and drivetrain-free balance bike to help learn the basics. Kids sit low enough and learn to balance and steer with both feet on the […]
A MIDSUMMER CYCLIST’S DREAM?
If a friend invites you to a Solstice Ride this week, be very careful what you wear. It sounds like a wonderful idea to celebrate the longest day of the year with a group ride, but in some places, a Solstice Ride has a particular dress code: none. Most famous of these celebrations, the […]
MEET THE TOPO.
Why this just might be your new favorite saddle. 1. All-New Terry Saddle Shape. We started with a slightly narrower overall shape and lower profile than our Butterfly and Liberator Saddles. It’s not too narrow so it will support any kind of riding, but this shape nails it for mountain biking where fore-aft mobility is […]
HOW CLEAN IS YOUR CHAIN?
Not as clean as Georgena’s. Get some coffee and watch this classic how-to video for excellent tips and an inspired demonstration on proper care and cleaning of a bike chain.
THE BICYCLE DRESSMAKER.
Here’s another custom builder, but one who uses textiles rather than tungsten. Katharine Andrews has an eye for design, a passion for bicycles, a mastery of pattern making and sewing and may change the way you think about clothing. I discovered her custom clothing label, Telaio, at Hub and Bespoke in Seattle a couple of […]
WHERE’S GEORGENA?
As a matter of fact, she’s just launched a wonderful new website for her custom bike building business: georgenaterry.com. Georgena started Terry Bicycles some 30+ years ago, building bikes by hand and building a company dedicated to female cyclists, along the way. At first, her basement was her workshop until the demand for her women-specific […]

POETRY IN MOTION.
When I think about my mother I don’t necessarily think about bikes. But I think about beach days and learning to fly kites. I think about how hard she worked to raise a family in the States and how she managed to get all six of us on the ice in our hockey skates. She […]
LOVE LIFE – LOVE BIKES – LOVE RICHARD.
Spinning for a Cause.

The Richard Tom Foundation was […]

Chartered Yacht Cycling. Only a few months left to get it together and get on board.
