Full Spectrum Cycling 329 – Pretti Rides – Bike Swaps – Beach Issues – Frostbike Cancelled – Trek Recalls

This week’s Full Spectrum Cycling covers: unity rides honoring Alex Pretti, two big Milwaukee-area bike events (Bike Bazaar and Bay View Bike Swap), a Trek/Electra e-bike recall, a quick first look at Handup’s ColdEST gloves, and a shoreline access/trespass update that matters if you ride or walk Lake Michigan beaches. Plus: Strava leaderboard cheating cleanup, Sunn O))) tour dates, and Tom Morello coming to The Rave. https://youtu.be/xgzhmcnqTlk The Milwaukee Minute (or 5) Pretti Rides - A lot of the bike world showed up in solidarity for Alex Pretti, with unity rides happening across dozens of cities and multiple countries. Our Fat-bike.com take - https://fat-bike.com/2026/02/we-ride-fat-bikes-in-unity/ Milwaukee Bike Bazaar - March 14, 2026, at Riverside High School. Bay View Bike Swap - https://facebook.com/events/s/bay-view-bike-swap/1403385164700176/  https://www.fox6now.com/news/thousands-electric-bikes-recalled-fall-hazard-cpsc Greg’s 30-day Video Challenge  Beach Bikers Beware - If you ride Lake Michigan beaches (or even just walk the shoreline), the legal line in Wisconsin is getting extra attention after a ruling that leans hard on where “public” access ends and private property begins. The practical takeaway for riders: know where the ordinary high-water mark rules apply, and understand that “keep your tires wet” is not just a joke in this conversation.- https://fat-bike.com/2026/02/beach-bikers-beware-new-wisconsin-trespassing-ruling/ Tony finally likes his Abus lock Morello at the Rave in May Talkin’ Schmack  Frostbike Cancelled - Safety in MPLS - At least it won’t conflict with Fat-bike Birkie - https://www.bicycleretailer.com/industry-news/2026/01/26/alex-pretti-shooting-‘eye-opening’-bike-industry-minneapolis-area  Pretti Support - The industry side of this story is also worth noting: shops and brands in the Minneapolis area and around the world responded publicly, organized memorial rides, and had to weigh safety and community realities around events like Frostbike.
