The grocery getter:
This is the perfect bike for those of us wanting to cut down on our car usage as much as possible. A bike with a high range of gears and equipped with removable pannier bags is the pick for you. This Bridgestone bike is a classic with drop bars, two water bottle holders and a rack ready to tackle any town adventure.
The town cruiser:
Looking to stick on the grid or ride the river trail? A classic town cruiser might be the bike for you! These bikes are simple and fun. Without gears or handle breaks to get in the way, all you need to maintain these trusty steeds is a bike pump. This Sears vintage cruiser is even equipped with a rack over the front wheel where you can fasten down your towel and get to the water.
The roadie commuter:
On some summer days in Durango, biking is simply faster. Looking to switch your commute to biking but aren’t willing to sacrifice efficiency? A classic road bike might be the townie for you. This Zullo is a racing classic, ready for any commute near and far!

Don’t want to fuss with tons of bikes in the garage? Stick with your mountain bike or swing by and pick one up, cause let’s be honest, we’re not willing to sacrifice trail performance for a smoother commute.
Look–we can’t deny that huge ski areas are popular for a reason. Mega ski resorts often have the most terrain, the newest lifts, the snazziest shuttles, the most interesting base villages, and the best dining and aprés options. They can also (sometimes) have the best snow.
But big ski areas can also be a big pain in the rear. Crowds, traffic, lift lines, parking hassles, wild hotel and meal prices, and jaw-dropping lift ticket rack rates can all conspire to make skiing seem a LOT less fun than it should be.
Winter snow may still cover the high country for another six months or more, but it’s never too early to learn about what’s new in mountain bike tech for 2025. Spring Break is right around the corner and whether it’s a trip to the desert you have planned, or you are dreaming about your perfect ride for this summer, now is the time to learn about what’s new for this year.
Not up for a new bike? Come spring,Durango Outdoor Exchange will have plenty ofused bikes to choose from–we just may have the perfect project bike for some of the tech you see listed below.
One of the main ways to determine running shoe type is by looking at sole thickness. The sole is what cushions and stabilizes you, and how much of it your shoes have goes a long way to predicting how comfortable the shoes will be.
But, more sole does not always equate to a better shoe, and the reason behind this is guided in part by what kind of runner you are.
With so many shoes offering varying levels of sole thickness, how do you know what’s best for you? Let’s look at the importance of sole thickness, how it impacts your running performance, and what to look for when choosingrunning shoes in Durango.
