Now that I’m back on the bike in an effort to get rid of the muffintop that is invading my midsection (collected over the past couple years of marriage and baby), my eyes are now coveting some bicycle related things, as per normal… This post is an effort to curb that desire by creating a window shopping experience, as I can no longer spend my money on gear not girls (the mantra of my twenties). Marriage and being a daddy now means I must spend my hard earned cash my two girls, and no longer can spend money on gear… I’m actually ok with this maturation.

With that said here are some links and mini-reviews of products I love, but don’t own… yet.

I’m trying to talk the partners at welikesmall into purchasing a few for the new offices in downtown Salt Lake City. They are very bike centric and love design, so I’m hoping it will be an easy sell.

    I’ve been a dad for about 12 days… just typing this statement is a bit absurd and surreal. I’m working on a long-form story of Haddassah’s birth and hopefully, it’ll ...
