The annual Thanksgiving show drops on actual Thanksgiving this year (American Thanksgiving at least, sorry Canada). I wanted to do a refresh of my theme of “thanks bicycle touring.” What are YOU thankful about in the realm of bike touring? Call the Pedalshift voicemail and add your voice to things… take a minute and tell everyone what you’re thankful for. Be anonymous if you’d like… also email in your thoughts or hit social media with them.

The Journal: Transitioning to fall riding

  • Take some time to give your bike a once-over
  • Consider a new chain lube for different conditions
  • Water capacity needs lower?
  • Layers
  • Lights
  • Wet leaves are like ice
