Pity the poor loved ones of devoted cyclists. When the weather is good, they abandon you for the open road. When the weather is lousy, they’re down in their bike cave, elbow-deep in chain lube and tire sealant. Then comes the challenge of finding an acceptable gift. Anything too practical, such as a helmet or a lock, they probably already own. (Plus, they have Definite Opinions on what they prefer.)
Then there’s the whole subculture question: Does your cyclist identify as a mountain biker or a bikepacker? Do they watch every hour of the full-length, early morning Tour de France telecast? Or do they scorn spandex and all who wear it?
We hear your pleas for help, and we’ve pulled together an assortment of presents to keep every pedaler—mountain bikers, road riders, commuters, or anyone else on two wheels—happily rolling along.
