Bike to School Day Playlist
It’s time to channel your inner @coachbalto and fire up that Bluetooth speaker for tomorrow’s Bike to School Day. We have a very special 46-song playlist compiled by local DJs @dj_jimeni and @jamtwoscoops. It’s available via Spotify below. Bike Bus leaders, feel free to BLAST this on your rides to school to get the kids amped up. It’s going to be sunny and 38 in the AM, so it's perfectly doable. Be sure to take lots of pics and videos and tag YGR.

Whitney Allison’s 2023 ENVE MOG
Last week I had the opportunity to shoot Whitney Allison's embarged ENVE Mog. Even though ENVE's new gravel frame wasn't publically acknowledged until today, Whitney and Zack Allison of Bike Sports had been successfully racing/testing them since late September. They picked them up just after the Utah Belgium Waffle Ride and shortly thereafter, Whit rode hers to a 2nd at BWR Kansas and 8th at Big Sugar. The pair's Mogs are nearly identically built with ENVE rims, bars, stem and dropper posts, Shimano Di2 GRX, WTB tires, and Ergon saddles.

DesFit Review- KICKR Core Zwift One
DesFit tells us everything we need to know about the new KICKR Core Zwift One, enabling virtual shifting on Wahoo's KICKR Core smart bike trainer. The KICKR Core Zwift One is great for households with multiple bikes using the same trainer, and the virtual shifting is great for bikes with limited gear ratios like gravel and mountain. The trainer will cost you $599.99 but comes with a year of Zwift, a $150.00 value.
