Behind the scenes of our very happy Christmas (she said “Christmas!”) photo shoot in our San Francisco factory. Hello? Oh, there you are. Fore! We’re #1! Go that way. Enthusiastic confusion strikes again at Timbuk2 Headquarters. Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!

Last-minute shopping recently left me in a quandry. How to get a Copilot Roller, Travel Wallet, and my bike across the city without access to a car? I considered begging coworkers who drive, entrusting a taxi driver to deliver it, paying Godspeed, our local courier of choice, to ride it home for me, and then [...]

Our in-house cookie monster Tim only baked 70 dozen cookies this year. Slacker. From Tim to Timbuk2: This year my time and sanity dictated a pared down version of “the platter.” Help yourselves to cranberry orange nut bread, cherry shortbread, chocolate almond shortbread, and good old sugar cookies. Happy ChrismaKwanakah . . . or Tuesday. [...]

No, they weren’t for me. But if you have to ride Muni, this is the way to do it! I go to great lengths to limit my Muni riding in San Francisco (i.e. cycling in a midnight downpour), but this morning I had to do it. I gave myself a good looking-at-my-reflection-in–the-mirror pep talk, scraped [...]

City Hall featured a red carpet and real snow last night. I should have ridden in my mink coat! It was a slightly less glamorous scene this morning. A sad little snowman was melting in the morning sun and two big guys with shovels were cleaning up the melt. Out with the mink, in withe [...]

This year our design team worked really hard to develop a collection of serious cycling bags for serious cyclists. They created the Especial collection. It includes three packs – the Dos, Tres and Cuatro – and one pannier – the Viaje – and launches February 1, 2012 on timbuk2.com. But who wants to wait until [...]
