About 3 months ago, I was driving casually heading back home and then one not so fun thing happened. Smoke coming out of my car’s engine. Thankfully, I was driving slow enough and close to a Wawa that I was able to pull up into the parking lot and, with a ton of questions in my head, I called a very good friend of mine to see if he can tow my car and maybe provide some answers. Long story short, cracked engine block.

Fall is upon us. For a lot of us, that means beautiful colors, leaves, cooler weather and unfortunately lots of rain. If you are a biker and live in an apartment or don’t have enough garage space or backyard shed to store your bikes and protect them from rain (or snow), well you are not alone and not completely out of luck either. Yardstash IV might be the solution to your problems. Here is what I have found out after reading 104 reviews and 47 questions 🙂
I have been on a minimalist kick lately. I have recently written an article about bike travel bags while researching how to store your bike in a tiny home. Then I asked myself, ‘if you don’t have a lot of space, or a garage to store your bike, or you live in a small apartment, and don’t want to buy a travel bag, how do you store your bike?” That’s when I remembered THE tiny bike rack.
Funny thing is, I already sort of have a blog about this but, I just wanted to concentrate on the smallest one with the smallest footprint. Not to mention a very cool simple design.
Well, ladies and gentlemen, I give you THE CLUG.
For the past year or so I have been a tiny bit obsessed with tiny homes (no pun intended). About a week ago, I was thinking about how people that live in these small spaces come up with very creative ways to store their stuff. Then I wondered how they find a space for their bikes, as most of the tin homeowners seem to be outdoorsy types, I assumed they would be into biking. This led me to EVOC travel bag. I had never heard of this company before or people shipping their bikes all over the world for that matter. Here are the results of my research, hope you find it valuable.
Whether it is currently winter where you live or if you are already enjoying a nice warm day, if you are an outdoorsy type like we are, it is a safe bet to say that, you can’t wait to load up your car or SUV, go camping, hiking or golfing with your friends.
If you have done any kind of research on bike racks, like we have, you are very familiar with the brand Hollywood by now. They have been around since 1973, started out as a small business in the back of a bike shop in Hollywood, California. Since then, they have grown into one of the biggest names in the bike rack industry, manufacturing a variety of bike rack products with very competitive price points. They currently operate in all 50 states and 25 different countries worldwide. Continue reading
