Colorado Avid Cyclist | BIKE MS Colorado

Why do I Ride BIKE MS?

By: A.V. Schmit

BIKE MS is an event that started in Minnesota, in 1980. Since that time cycling events hosted by the National Multiple Sclerosis Society have raised more than 1.4 Billion dollars.

I have been riding BIKE MS and its predecessor for more than 30 years. Why, because it makes a tangible difference in the lives of people living with MS.

Personally, many of the best things in my life have come from cycling. BIKE MS is an opportunity to give something back to the sport that has given so much to me.

The National Multiple Sclerosis Society funds much-needed research, patient navigators and other essential services for those affected by MS.

Ride, fundraise, donate or come out a cheer. Together we can make a difference.

Colorado Avid Cyclist | Sealant Monsters

Is there a monster lurking inside your tires?

Tubeless tires are not maintenance-free. The sealant needs to be checked at least every 6-months.

When your sealant dries up, in addition to leaving a foul aroma, it prevents added sealant from sealing punctures.

Don’t let the evil sealant monsters bit you this spring. Go see your mechanic, and slay the monster lurking in your tires.

When cycling first got started, much like other sports, safety was not of paramount concern. As time and technology have marched on, the bicycle helmet has evolved into an essential piece of high-tech protection equipment.
