Happy Spring,

Why should we have to make sacrifices for convenience?  Does that not negate something actually being convenient? Read More …

Hey Everyone!

It’s that time of year. The kids are back to school.  The days are starting to get shorter and the perfect time for riding is approaching us.  The mild temperatures of fall allow for excellent conditions no matter what riding style you enjoy.  The cooler temperatures and autumn breezes help to keep you cool and push your potential every ride!

This week’s post is going to be application specific and may relate to either you directly or someone you know who is unsure of the best upgrade for their rig. One question which is often posed to me in the shop is: Read More …

Hey everyone,

As I continue to direct my posts towards bike service and maintenance I found it coincidental that I had a customer in the other afternoon who was in need of some tools in order to service various aspects of his bike.

In this post, I hope to identify and distinguish between the different bikes that are available and the applications and riding styles for which they are designed. This can be significant when looking at purchasing a bike or when determining if the bike you have is the correct one for you. Read More …

So, here I am, once again looking at a new opportunity - totally overwhelmed with all the new information I am to understand – let alone take charge of.  However, I haven’t yet met a challenge I haven’t been able to meet.  So, here it goes….

Bikes and I go a long way back.  Well, at least 25 years.  That’s when I  married into the “Braun” family.   It was not until the last ten years however, that cycling has been a REAL part of my life. Read More …
