New Bike Saddle Covers!

In this picture you can see the prototype for the handlebar bag we'll be listing soon!

It rains a lot in Seattle. Not this time of year, but it'll start soon enough and won't let up for about six months. I still ride my bike in the rain, like a lot of bike commuters in the Pacific Northwest. One of the bike gear components that is sorely lacking around here is saddle covers! When you park out in the rain, you don't mind having wet handlebars or bike frame, but a wet seat? Yuck! 

A simple cover to slap on when you park and that will keep your saddle dry (or in the case of an expensive leather saddle, keep it from getting ruined!) is essential! Bonus for having it in colors that make you happy amidst the surrounding grayness. Check out the Echo Etsy store for some cool, colorful, waterproof saddle covers that will keep your seat dry! These are made from laminated cotton, one size fits all, for an amazing price! Happy riding!

Bike bandanas and hankies preview

It's so exciting to see these products come together! I love the colors, fabrics, and styles we've chosen and I can't wait to use them myself and send them off to you to enjoy as well! Today I'm working on some thin cotton bandanas/scarves/hankies that are perfectly versatile for the changing season! Wear it under your helmet for some rain and mist protection (or to keep your ears warm!); wear it tied around your neck as an extra layer of wind resistance, or tuck it in your pocket for those downhill sniffles! This thin colorful scarf packs down small, can be thrown in the washer, and is just the right size for a grab and go Fall accessory on any commute or quick trip.  Embroidered by hand from an original drawing of a vintage bike, each one is different and unique! Scarves in color combos to complement our wallets and bags will be available on the Etsy site next week! Check out the current product list here, happy riding!
