" One of my favorite perks about working at Mountain Hardwear is its location at the north end of the Bay Trail. Everyday I have a beautiful bike ride along the bay and which often includes a ride up into the Berkeley Hills on my way to work in the morning. Coming down those hills can be chilly in the early hours! My Heavyweight Powerstretch Gloves keep my fingers from freezing and they have a gripper patches on the inner palm which provide more protection and help when picking up my bike.
I also love bicycle camping and have found that the Sprite/Ghisallo tents are essential pieces- they are very lightweight and packable and have specifically designed vestibule to keep my bicycle out of view. When I go for a quick excursion I usually pack the Sprite tent. The Power Stretch Jacket is a well-fitting hooded layering piece that keeps me warm both on overnight camping trips and rides along the windy Bay Trail." – Brooke Appler, Design Associate/Outerwear
