Just because you have a women's kit doesn't mean you have a kit for women.
I really thought I could I post it all in one go, but even I would get bored and click away from a long, long post. There's too much for one post and that's GREAT. That means there was enough women's kit to share with you and that also means the industry is moving in... Continue Reading →
I went to Interbike last week, the North American bike industry expo held in Las Vegas, Nevada every September. It was a shit show. It looked like this, times 300,000 square feet.
