All bike racks might appear to be created equal. But few have what it takes to survive the abuse of today’s overlanding cyclists. Hollywood Racks’ new CrossTrack is an altogether different beast, a hitch-mounted bike rack that’s purpose-built for maximum stability — Buy at Hollywood Racks — no matter how rough the going gets.

The design is a game-changer for overlanders, in particular, who frequently tote mountain bikes or off-road-ready e-bikes to camp. It delivers rock-solid stability through a “No Wobble” Hitch System (available on the two-inch model) that “eliminates slack between the receiver hitch and the rack without the use of any tools.”

The all-new CrossTrack minimizes bike-to-bike contact by placing each two-wheeler in its own tray. It’s also the first and only rack in Hollywood Racks’ catalog to provide frameless touch points, opting instead to secure each bike by the wheels. When you finally make it to camp, a front handle pull mechanism makes loading and unloading a snap. And, when you return home, the CrossTrack folds flat for maximum storage versatility.

The CrossTrack is available now in one- or two-bike models and supports either 1.25″ or 2″ hitch receivers. It accommodates bikes up to 66 pounds each with a maximum 52-inch wheelbase. Hollywood Racks even throws in two wheel locks and a Kryptonite Keeper 712 integrated chain lock for free. Additional accessories, including a ramp, LED light bar, wheel locks, and wheel size adjuster knobs, are also available.

Stewart Golf Q Follow Review: The Electric Caddie You’ll Never Want to Leave at Home 
Clothing, Footwear, Shoe

I was skeptical about the Stewart Golf Q Follow, but probably not for the reason you’d expect. I already understood the appeal of an electric caddie. What I wasn’t convinced of was whether I could actually live with one.

My sports sedan isn’t exactly a cargo van, and my golf bag already has permanent residency in the trunk. The last thing I wanted was another piece of golf gear that required a game of Tetris every time I headed to the course.

How the Baseus PicoGo series is making travel charging less of a hassle
Computer, Electronics, Laptop

Every traveller has an everyday carry, even if they don’t think of it that way. A smartphone is a given. Earbuds are almost always close by. Many people also carry a smartwatch, a tablet, a handheld gaming console or a lightweight laptop, depending on where the day takes them. The common thread isn’t the devices themselves but the expectation that they’ll always be ready when they’re needed.

Baseus believes portable charging should be just as effortless to carry as the devices people rely on every day. The PicoGo Series brings that idea to life with two products that complement each other. PicoGo Air leads the lineup with an ultra-thin, lightweight design for everyday smartphone charging, while PicoGo AM52 expands the experience with higher capacity, a built-in cable and multi-device charging for longer journeys. Together, they create a complete charging solution for travellers, outdoor enthusiasts and digital nomads.
