Don’t put your bike away. Summer’s not over yet!

Just because you flipped from August to September on your calendar doesn’t mean summer is over. In fact, September is one of the greatest times of year to ride, with warm (but not too hot) weather, relatively long days, and dry roads and trails. Take advantage of as much sunlight as you can get, because you know how winter can get around here.

Featured Product
LIN cycling socks come in a variety of styles and sizes that will fit your feet and also tell your riding buddies a little about you. For example, enhance your flowery personality by sporting the “Daisy Dukes,” or perpetuate your aura of mystery with the “Camo” design. Multiple TransRockies Challenge (7 days and 600+ km off-road from Fernie to Panorama, B.C.) finisher Paul Craig says these socks rock! Paul’s big toes constantly punch holes in his other socks, but LIN kept those big toes in check and covered up.
