I'm All Over That Internet!

Not only do I have a new Outside column about the joys of riding chubby tires...

And yeah, apparently plus-sized tires are out of style now, which I guess makes me out of style like a fox:


I gotta say I love this bike more every time I ride it, and I ride it a lot.  It's pretty much the perfect bike for autumn, which is when you want to be popping in and out of the woods and listening to the delightful sound of the leaves crunching beneath your plush, grippy, confidence-inspiring, and inexplicably outmoded plus-sized tires. 

Finally, let's hear it for helmets and the USA!

"An analysis by the Toole Group charted helmet use against fatality rates across eight countries. Riders in the U.S. had the highest rates of helmet use among the countries included. But American cyclists also had the highest fatality rate per distance traveled. " @bikesnobnyc pic.twitter.com/P3Dgyzyhqp— Seth Haberman (@sethhaberman) October 24, 2018

Shocking.
