Today’s lesson is a tip for anyone who rides solo and was recently learned by Joshua the hard way. After experiencing series of unfortunate events of multiple flats and not fully prepared for Murphy's Law, Joshua found himself about 25 miles out of town on backcountry roads. That is a long walk and a bit difficult to share exact location. Here is the tip from this sad event, if you have a smartphone and find yourself in need of a rescue, “Share My Location” is an amazing tool! iOS and Android phones have this feature and make quick work of trying to relay directions. Each system works a little different. Take a few moments before your next solo adventure and check out “Share My Locat
Lessons from Mojo: Product review of the Catlike Whisper helmet in size small. First impressions are very good. I was in need of a new road helmet this season and after trying on the Whisper I knew this was the helmet for me. The Whisper is light, well vented and comfortable. Riding with a head warmer in the cooler mornings has not changed the feel of the retention system. This helmet almost disappears while riding and I don’t find myself fiddling with the straps or the retention system. I am looking forward to the warmer summer riding (who isn’t?) this year since the helmet is so well vented. Overall, this is one of the best helmets I ever had a chance to to use riding.

This week’s lesson is a suggested piece of gear from one of our customers that makes a lot of scenes, the humble frame bag on a road bike. But wait, frame bags are only for people who are touring and going ultra long distances right? No, a frame bag is perfect addition to your gear line up for casual road riding. Frame bags allow you to store ride essentials out of the way and off the body. Most current bags have plenty of room to store extra nutrition, water, or clothing. Our crew will be using these beauties this coming season. Watch for season long gear reviews. Comment below if you use a frame bag or another piece of suggestion.
