YOU GUYS. If you have been following me for long enough, then you know my love for Velocio runs deep. Deeper than my #wcw on Taylor Wiles, deeper than my admiration for Kristy Scymgeour. As if I needed more reasons to buy Velocio... This spring into summer I rode in the new ES Jersey, charcoal... Continue Reading →

The Domestique Critique: RedWhite The BIB
RedWhite is an anomaly in the cycling clothing industry - they only focus on bibshorts. Specifically, endurance bibshorts. The bibshorts are designed with long rides of 4 to 5 hours or more in mind.

The Domestique Critique: Dotout
I first came to know Dotout at Interbike in Las Vegas.

We had a sleepy start in the foggy morning but had a ripping good time on the beautiful climbs around Mt. Washington and Rose Bowl neighborhoods. Back... Continue Reading →
Makeup and Cycling
At the WomensKit holiday ride this past weekend, I was asked about my makeup. If I ride 4 times a week, it's a sure bet that at least 2 of those rides is in makeup. I ride frequently on week nights and that means riding in the same makeup I wore to the office. Has... Continue Reading →
