mall of America

The Tour de France is nearing its end, the weather is beautiful, and Nice Ride Minnesota has installed bicycle kiosks all over Minneapolis. It’s the perfect time to try bike commuting. Mall of America can help you out with affordable gear that can take you from the bike path to business casual.

The PUMA Store’s Traction Graph Courier Bag ($80, picture above left), in bright blue, will keep your laptop secure and dry and your wallet and keys stowed in style. The reflective silver panel will give you a little extra visibility and the adjustable shoulder strap will keep you comfy.

Nike’s Dri-Fit Jersey Polo ($40, Nordstrom, pictured above center) will give you a preppy boost with sweat-wicking fabric to keep you cool and dry.

Biking doesn’t mean you have to leave your girly side at home. The flirty Set the Tone skort ($45, Columbia Store, pictured above right) is cute and moisture-wicking. It’ll keep you covered up on the bike, and at work, no one needs to know it’s not a skirt. Get out there and ride!
