10 Tracks with Lauren Mehl

Alright, lets go! This week's 10 Tracks DJ is Lauren Mehl. Lauren came to us via Seattle and instantly started leaving a positive mark on the cycling community and our community in general. In the eight years since moving to Fort Collins, Lauren has become involved with projects and groups many riders around here know, including the FoCo Fondo and Queer+ Bikes. Lauren is also the co founder of Joyride, an upcoming bike repair, cafe, and community space hoping to open in Fort Collins this fall.

The Entire Poudre River Trail is Now OPEN

I am stoked to be pumped to announce that the PRT is now OPEN from Bellvue to Greeley (For real this time)!
Larimer County Natural Recourses announced today that it had completed the final section between Timnath and Windsor and the 45 mile trail is now open.

Ride Review: B Steele’s custom Nikas

Alright, let's go! Today, we've got B Steele's custom Nikas hardtail, proudly built right here in Fort Collins by Nick Zukauskas.  Bethel or “B” (he/him or they/them) just really loves bikes. Their love for bikes started when working at a local bike shop in Boston and has continued through one-on-one and small group mechanic workshops, most of which have been a venture of Queer+ Bikes, the group B co-founded with Lauren Mehl.

DesFit Review: Garmin Varia RearVue 820

In his latest review, DesFit takes a detailed look at the new Garmin Varia RearVue 820, breaking down what Garmin improved and who this upgrade is really for. Released in February 2026, the RearVue 820 builds on Garmin’s radar legacy with a brighter 100-lumen tail light, expanded 175-meter vehicle detection, brake light functionality, and more advanced vehicle tracking when paired with compatible Edge computers or the Varia app. Des dives into real world usability, battery life, and whether the added features justify the price compared to previous Varia models and competing radar units.

Dohn Construction

I'm very excited to welcome Dohn Construction to the YGR family of advertisers.
