"I took a deep breath,
looked for a final time
at those comforting
tires, pushed off and
to my amazement actually
went somewhere. I was
awkward. I was ungainly.
I hadn't gone more than
three or four feet, but
by God I felt the
balance and that was
enough. I did it!"
- Ken Turan, Movie Critic,
On learning to ride

AMBASSADOR GATHERINGS

Presentation locations have included REI stores, health and fitness centers, bicycle clubs, schools, conferences like the Assication, libraries, and to local and national organizations. Visit here to learn how to inspire a group of your own.
