Every so often, BIKEASAURUS likes to highlight the talents and personality of one of our beloved local crafters. This time around, we checked in with Gigi Lascurettes, the artist behind the always-popular Helmuffs®. Gigi’s Helmuffs® (earmuffs that attach to your helmet straps) are the perfect solution to riding with cold ears and we love selling them here at BIKEASAURUS. They’re our favorite type of product: clever, practical and locally-made! Click here or on the “Featured Crafter” tab above to read Gigi’s Q&A.
