Winter is a comin'!

Winter is coming and that means that it is time to get prepared. Prepared for bad weather. Prepared for shorter days. Prepared for a new season.

Five Things to Help You Through the Winter in Style:

1. Gear Upgrade. Get yourself a pair of winter shoes, GoreTex shell, and nice thick tights. You'll stay riding all winter long.

2. Cross Train! Rock climbing and pilates are my two favorite off-season choices. Don't forget crosscountry skiing too.

3. Watch PinkBike videos to get stoked on riding.

4. Line up your team details for the coming season!

5. Set yourself up a training plan through the winter and into the new year. Don't underestimate the value of a good coach too!
