Kick Stands

[AnnieBikes]

Last year on the Underground RR ride that I did, there was a woman who had a click stand. It was an awesome, lightweight little thing that you use as a kick stand. Instead of using the "brake bands" I just wedged a glove in the brakes. It is especially nice on a multi-day supported tour when you come in to a rest stop and every available fence, wall space, and tree is occupied!!

My husband ALWAYS takes his on his loaded touring bike and says he could not live without it. Check out this guy's website. I do not have ANY vested interest in this guy: he is not my brother, and I just think that he has a neat, useful product!!! He is out on a bike tour right now but will return in about ten days. I bought one and use it on both my road and touring bike as it works for each.
