Backpacks on, mountains ahead, no plan required. 🎒🏔️🚴‍♀️

August is one of the best months to just point your bike toward something beautiful and ride toward it.

If you've been wanting to explore more by bike this summer, all you really need is a good bag, a full water bottle, and someone to ride alongside.

Rocks, roots, and tight turns through the trees: the kind of terrain that separates a good trail bike from a great one. 🌲

If you've been riding a hardtail and keep hitting technical sections that feel sketchy or exhausting, it might be time to think about full suspension.

A full suspension mountain bike absorbs trail chatter and lets you stay in control and conserve energy on technical descents. 🚲

Find your person and just ride. 🙌

There's something about having a riding partner who pushes you just enough, laughs with you mid-climb, and shows up no matter what the weather looks like. July is the perfect month to get more miles in with someone who makes every ride better. 🚲

Summer break + a bike = the best kind of July. ☀️🚲

There's nothing like watching kids discover the freedom of riding on their own. One thing worth knowing before buying a kids' bike: fit matters more than most parents realize.

A bike that's too big is actually harder and less safe to ride than one that fits properly. Come in this month and we'll size them up correctly so they can focus on the fun part. 🥳

No agenda, no pace requirements, just a summer trail and good company. ☀️

Some of the best July rides are the unplanned ones where you just pick a path and see where it goes. If you've been thinking about getting a friend into cycling this summer, a casual trail ride is the perfect place to start. 🙌

Some paths just make you want to keep going and going and going. 🌲☀️🚴‍♀️

July gravel riding through the trees is its own kind of magic, especially when the trail ahead disappears around a bend and you have no idea what's coming next.

That sense of exploration is why so many road riders are making the switch to gravel this summer.

Curious if a gravel bike is right for you? Come talk to us and we'll help you figure it out. 😎

Mud on the kit, fire in the eyes. 🔥

Gravel racing season is in full swing and there is nothing quite like the feeling of pushing through a long effort when everything gets hard.

Whether you're racing this summer or just training like you are, that mindset is everything. 🫡
