read moreWe're very excited to share VeloPro Brand Ambassador, Jeff Sigman's blog of his Paris-Brest-Paris experiences last August. PBP is one of the original monuments of long-distance cycling. Founded in 1891 and held every four years, PBP tests elite cyclists with its 1,200 km (750 miles) distance and 9,750 meters (32,000 feet) of climbing in a non-stop 80 hour time limit. All riders must complete a series of timed qualifying events to be invited to ride. Adding to the challenge, PBP is considered a brevet, or self-supported event! No team van, pro mechanic or personal chefs allowed.

This unique park is built on a dormant volcano, features watershed reservoirs, and is covered in tall pines. Mt. Tabor is about 650 feet in elevation and has close to 3 miles of paved roads and paths that make for nice short climbs and descents. To celebrate the beauty of this Portland landmark, Dave cycled the park continuously for 14 hours, riding 120 miles and climbing over 13,000 feet. Dave is shown here in red riding with Lee Johnson and Jon Seaman to share the joy of a rare sunny Winter day.

Jon Seaman our VeloPro CMO reflects on his experience at the Swift Summit 200/100. In our winner take all, no time for losers' society, is there room for failure? Does context matter? Can we learn anything from careful introspection and a detailed examination of our mistakes, or are we just making excuses?

The Swift Summit 200/100 is a unique ride. It has a ton of soul. Trevor Spangle, the event director, is a genius at building a supportive cycling community. One of the many touches that makes the event special is the anonymous letter program. Each participant sends in an anonymous letter of encouragement. This letter is then distributed blindly to another rider. Trust me, the encouragement is needed. The Swift Summit is a very demanding event. This is the letter that Jon Seaman our VeloPro CMO sent into the loving ether. His identity now revealed, he hope it inspired a great ride. Most importantly, he hopes it will inspire you for next event.
