E-bike Rebate Returns

Colorado's popular statewide e-bike rebate program is coming back later this month. Beginning August 24, eligible low and moderate income Coloradans can register for a chance to receive a $1,000 point of sale rebate toward the purchase of a qualifying e-bike, with additional incentives available for cargo and adaptive e-bikes.

Chip Seal, A Necessary Evil

Alright, fine, let's talk about chip seal and why it's a necessary evil. Nobody likes it, but we should at least understand why it gets done every summer.
I fired off a Q&A to Todd Juergens, Director for Larimer County Road and Bridge, to get info on lifespan, frequency, cost, and why, from an engineering standpoint, repaving isn't always the best course of action. Head over to YGR to learn everything you ever wanted to know about your nemesis, Mr Chip Seal.

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.
