ProView – Burley Coho XC

September 28, 2018March 24, 2020Biking, Camping, ProView Gear Reviews Outdoor Prolink Pro 1 Comment on ProView – Burley Coho XC

This fall I was able to test the Burley COHO XC trailer– a light, but robustly built mono-wheel trailer weighing in at 21 lbs equipped with its own suspension and designed to carry up to 70 lbs of gear over…

Living in my truck a few months out of the year with 2+ bikes just got a whole lot easier thanks to the BackStage Swing Away rack from Boulder, CO-based RockyMounts. For the past few years, I have been utilizing…

ProView – Julbo Aerospeed Sunglasses

May 30, 2018January 7, 2021Biking, Julbo, ProView Gear Reviews Outdoor Prolink Pro Leave a Comment on ProView – Julbo Aerospeed Sunglasses

I’ve been testing the Julbo Aerospeed Sunglasses for the past six weeks in a variety of on and off-road conditions. I live in a high valley (~7,000 feet elevation) in Colorado, so the areas where I ride range from wide…

ProView – Timbuk2 Robin Pack

June 15, 2017July 14, 2017Biking, ProView Gear Reviews Outdoor Prolink Leave a Comment on ProView – Timbuk2 Robin Pack

On first glance I immediately liked the look of the Robin Pack. As a bike commuter in Boulder, it’s easy to look unprofessional carrying your laptop and extras while riding, but the stylistic design and colors of the Robin balance…

ProView – Julbo Aero Sunglasses

May 8, 2017July 14, 2017Biking, ProView Gear Reviews Outdoor Prolink Leave a Comment on ProView – Julbo Aero Sunglasses

These Julbo Aero sunglasses are sweet. They have a bit of the “racy” look too them without being too over the top.  I think they look equally at home in a full race kit on a bike, on someone trail…

November 16, 2016September 14, 2017Backpacking and Hiking, Biking, ProView Gear Reviews Outdoor Prolink 1 Comment on ProView – NEMO Equipment Bikepacking Kit

The Five Ten Kestrel Lace mountain bike shoe is a comfortable, do-it-all lace-up that’s equally at home on alpine climbs, bike park doubles, and unwinding at the brewery after a huge ride. It doesn’t handle moisture well, but in cool and…

July 29, 2016September 11, 2017Biking, ProView Gear Reviews Outdoor Prolink Leave a Comment on ProView – Club Ride Eden w/ DamselCham Liner Short

As with my other Club Ride apparel, the Eden w/ DamselCham Liner shorts do not fall short of awesome. I love the stretch and fit of the outer short and the Maui Blue color is eye-catching. Fit The 7” inseam…
