Firstgear Women's Monarch Jacket
After moving back to the Bay Area, I really wanted to purchase a nice cold weather riding jacket. I searched for such a long time, and I have finally been able to find it, and not to mention at a great price.

If you read my review on the Damaco Lock Alarm you may have got the impression that I'm a bit anal about the security of my bike and my gear!

Black Wolf Monashee
After eight years of searching I think I've finally found it - the ultimate backpack! The Monashee from Black Wolf is 40+ litres of multiple pockets, sections, pouches, waterproof zips, compression straps and it's also hydration compatible.

Damaco Lock Alarm
Trust me; the night you walk out to a vacant spot where your bike was parked is most definitely the worst freakin' night of your life.

Medical Emergency Data System and ResQtag
Five will get you ten that the first person on the scene of your dethroning will try and rip your helmet off, trying to do the right thing, but failing miserably in the process. The Medical Emergency Data System (M.E.D.S.) is a little 2x1.5 inch black plastic pouch that sticks to the left rear side of your helmet.

Bobster MX3-100BK Off-Road Goggle x/ RX Insert
Sometimes you feel like being a bit different! Sometimes you just get sick of wearing the same old 'brand name' gear all the time! Sometimes, well just sometimes, bugger it... you just want to be an inpidual and stand out from the crowd.

Gear Review: Draggin Jeans Molten Camo
It's a beautiful, sunny Sunday morning and you're cruisin' down the road at a great rate of knots without a care in the world when all of a sudden a dog runs out in front of you...

Riding with Rilke by Ted Bishop
I'm not sure how I came across the book, but you know you're going home with it when you've spent the last five minutes at Borders trying to determine the year and model of the bike on the cover instead of thumbing through the pages or even reading the back cover.

Picture that perfect morning commute. The sun is starting to warm the air. You exit the 56 and pull onto Carmel Valley Rd. for that quick connection along the lagoon. Torrey Pines State beach is just around the bend.

Jetboil Camping Stove
Well let me be clear. Outside of breakfast, barbecue, and take-out, I really have no business writing about food preparation or the implements involved in any such process.

Kermit Chair
We all know that being comfortable can make or break a road trip. While many campsites are equipped with picnic tables, there's no substitute for a nice place to plop yourself down after a few hundred miles on the road.
