World Bicycle Day 🚲

Pedal-powered, fuel-efficient, and somehow still capable of making your legs file a formal complaint—bicycles are pretty amazing.

Just like the towing and recovery industry, cycling is all about having the right equipment for the job.

Whether you're riding across town or recovering a loaded tractor-trailer on the side of the freeway, safety, reliability, and communication matter.

Today we're celebrating everyone who chooses two wheels to get where they're going—and reminding all motorists to give cyclists the space and respect they deserve.

Because whether you're operating a bicycle, a rotator, a wrecker, or a service truck, everyone deserves to make it home safely.

Happy World Bicycle Day from Gerlock Equipment Northwest!

🚲 Stay visible.🚗 Stay aware.🤝 Share the road.

🚨 Equipment That Performs When It Matters Most 🚨

Recently, a rollover recovery on I-84 involving a truck, trailer, and John Deere tractor required a combination of experience, planning, and the right equipment to safely complete the job.

This recovery showcased several industry-leading products that help heavy recovery professionals work safer, smarter, and more efficiently:

✅ NRC Industries RotatorThe NRC rotator provided the lifting power, precision, and versatility needed to safely recover and upright the equipment while operating in a confined roadside environment.

✅ MATJACK Air Lifting BagsMATJACK lifting bags were utilized to assist with stabilization and controlled lifting during critical phases of the recovery. When inches matter and safety is paramount, MATJACK continues to be one of the most trusted tools in the industry.

✅ Sonetics Wireless Communication SystemsWorking alongside live freeway traffic requires constant communication. Sonetics wireless headsets allowed operators to maintain clear communication throughout the recovery, helping improve coordination, efficiency, and jobsite safety.

At Gerlock Equipment NW, we proudly represent products we trust in the field. From heavy-duty rotators and recovery equipment to wireless communication systems and lifting solutions, we're committed to providing towing and recovery professionals with equipment that performs when the job is on the line.

When safety, reliability, and productivity matter, professionals choose equipment proven in real-world recoveries—not just in a catalog.

This Memorial Day, Gerlock Equipment NW pauses to honor and remember the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.

Today is more than a long weekend or the start of summer. It’s a day to reflect on the sacrifices made by those who never made it home — the heroes who gave everything so the rest of us could enjoy the freedoms we often take for granted.

We are deeply grateful to the fallen, to the families who carry their memory forward, and to all who have served.

As you spend time with family and friends today, we hope you’ll also take a moment to remember the true meaning of Memorial Day.

From all of us at Gerlock Equipment NW — thank you, and we will never forget. ❤️🤍💙
