Handy kit, innovative gadgets for those long rides.
No one wants to get lost on the trail, but digging through saddle bags for maps and other essentials isn’t convenient or safe when you’re on the move. To avoid wrong turns and getting lost on an unfamiliar trail try the trail kit from Cashel ($23.99; cashelcompany.com), which attaches to your saddle’s swells for easy in-saddle use, and offers a double-sided map pocket to help keep you on track. Two padded, waterproof pockets and built-in elastic loops keep tools, like a hoof pick, within arm’s reach.
