Dave Anolik - A Man on a Mission
VeloPro brand Ambassador Dave Anolik created his own event at Portland, Oregeon's Mt. Tabor. 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.
