Bike Stuff
It's been so cold here-make sure you are very prepared! Here are some winter tips!
· Let Someone know your are going for a ride and when to expect you back
· make sure everything is charged!
· Make sure you have the correct layers-it is possible to dress too warmly
· Give your bike a quick check before leaving tires, lights, supplies if you have an issue (flat tire or chain break)
· I always pack an extra long sleeve and an extra balaclava and extra gloves, good if you are too cold-or if you overdressed and now your clothes are sweaty!
· Biking this time of year is not about PRs, it's about being smart and safe. Bike carefully and bike prepared even if it is extra weight!

Customer Reviews
Great podcast!
I love listening to these two ladies, whether they are talking about knitting or biking. It’s always interesting.
This is what knitting podcasts should sound like!
These ladies are producing a fantastic podcast which is rooted in knitting but encompasses friendship, life and all the things they love. They are warm and friendly and welcoming to those of us who join them. I feel as if we are all sitting together, knitting and chatting. Their conversation is genuine and comfortable and you can feel how much they love what they are experiencing in knitting and in life. You can feel not only how much they enjoy making each episode but how much they want to make them! As a prolific podcast consumer, I feel this tops my list of my favorite podcasts. Ladies, thank you so very much for sharing a piece of your life with us and please keep the episodes coming!!!
