We just got in a few of Trek’s new Wavecel helmet. It is the newest, safest and most innovative helmet out there. You should ALWAYS wear a helmet when riding. Helmets require replacement every few years, if you can’t remember how old your helmet is it’s probably time for a new one. Below is also a link for a video that local rider Vinny Crispino made when he was younger about his head injury from not wearing a helmet and the importance.
Loving these new Bontrager pedals we just got in, available in all colors shown
We’re loving this bike from Specialized, the Crosstrail. Great bike for fitness, light trail use, and general riding. Front suspension and disc brakes for a great value
