  Hollywood Racks might not be the first brand that comes to mind when considering a new hitch bike rack. Its latest model, the CrossTrack, aims to change that. While the brand is relatively popular among RVers and e-bike riders, most people with high-end bikes have shied away because they all make contact with the bike frame.    The CrossTrack marks a...

How to Train Your Physiological Resilience
  Everyone has a plan, Mike Tyson famously said, until they get punched in the face. The endurance athlete’s version of that dictum might be: everyone has a great VO2 max and an efficient running stride until they’ve run 20 miles. How you fare in those final miles depends, in large part, on how steeply these factors have declined over the...
Where Mystery Ranch Ends and YETI Begins: Ranchero EDC Backpack Review
  If it aint broke, dont fix it. Those wise words often conflict with the increasingly consumer-driven, never-satisfied outdoor industry. Its not inherently nefarious (mostly); outdoor athletes, recreational adventurers, and daily grinders will wear down, nitpick, and expose areas of improvement time and again.   Sometimes, a small change results in massive backlash, while other times, a sweeping change will drastically evolve...
After 5 Years, Fox Racing Updates Favorite MTB Trail Helmet: Speedframe Pro First Look Review
  Fox Racing has been a stalwart brand for anything dirt, and its Speedframe helmet seems to be used in every mountain biking area that involves significant drops. If the terrain demands that you carry your bike over some sections on the way up, a Speedframe is likely on a rider coming down.

Driving a Rental Car in the Snow Is a Recipe for Disaster. Here’s How to Stay Safe.
  I’d put on tire chains before, and I might have set a speed record for attaching them had I been in my own driveway. But, somewhere on the side of a snowy mountain pass in the tiny alpine country of Andorra, all that muscle memory evaporated. We’d bought the correct chains for our vehicle down in town, but now they...

U.S. Tariff War Likely to Have Massive Impact on New Car Prices
  Earlier this week, U.S. President Donald Trump enacted new 25% tariffs against Canada and Mexico — while also increasing previous duties targeting China. While Trump subsequently decided to delay enacting the new duties against automobiles and auto parts for a month, virtually every vehicle on the market could see a significant increase in cost if a resolution to the trade...
