Endura Helium Jacket
Endura waterproofs have always been highly recommended to me and so I was initially excited to purchase the Helium when I saw it was on offer at almost half price. Last winter, it served me fairly well keeping me dry on most rides. However, it's been
Louri Strap | A Packless Solution
Packless riding is something I've been trying to master now for the last two years - the thought of having to ride with a pack has never particularly pleased me. I don't like the way bags sit on my shoulders or slide around as I ride.

Before the Freeriders, I used to ride in Vans. They were comfy and felt great off the bike. They gripped well enough and I liked them. The only reason I grabbed a pair of Five Tens was because they were on offer and I didn't want
Smoove Lube – As Good As They Say?
Smoove lube was introduced to me at the end of 2017 as an alternative chain lubrication. At first, I was reluctant to give up Muc Off; after all, it works great and I'd got into quite a good habit of cleaning and re-applying after each ride.
