Comment on Strider Running Bike Review by Robert Craddick

Striders are the way to go– good price compared with some Euro models too. My son started riding at 18 months with his helmet. I found some Louis Garneau junior 3D gloves for about $12 dollars and would suggest obtaining these and possible some knee pads. My son loves the bike and already know he cannot ride it without a helmet — the problem is not getting him on it but he really has a fit when it is time to get off (much like his dad). At 19 months he was speeding around in circles behind a 4 year old on a tricycle with training wheels and passing that child. He has easily learned to balance without feet in circles… still wrecks sometimes when he tries to lift both feet at a stop but still has fun… so much so that when he does wreck he is not crying even with a strawberried knee– just an “oops” he says… now he is peddling around with one foot up so I know that soon I will need to attach the optional brake! This is a great product especially for offroad toddling on two wheels— he really prefers this to the Schwinn Roadster trike we bought!

These are an invaluable backup when conditions render that pretty new GPS dead weight.

I recently bought a jacket and found it to be real comfortable and sufficient in cold weather. The real surprising thing was that I got comments from others about how nice the coat looks. I don’t buy for style…I’m pretty practical…give me warmth and wind protection. I have never had people comment “nice looking coat” to me. In the first two weeks I wore the coat I had at least 6 different people make that same comment.

These are great socks. They give great support and I’m sure have lessened fatigue when I’m on my legs all day.

This was very timely for me to see this article. I’ve been messing around trying to learn to tune up my own bike. I’m going to get one of these.

I have yet to get a pair of these merino wool socks, but Smartwool is awesome, so I’m sure they’re of similar or higher quality. It’s been years since I’ve worn a pair of socks that isn’t wool. It’s amazing the advances made in synthetics, but they still can’t top that wool!
