Why DW, why??

Recently, I have had some questions arise about why I am supportive of Lindsey Wilson College in Columbia, Kentucky instead of a more local school. Well, the short answer is that 2 of my sponsored track riders attend LWC, Brooke Crum and Mike Souers.

The longer answer would be that "... I had attempted to work with a local University, and sadly, it didnt work out."

I enjoy supporting junior and collegiate cycling. Admittedly, I don't enjoy monetary profits from it, but I enjoy supporting the young cyclists to the best of my ability, because I like looking into the future of our sport.

So, why bother explaining this?;
Because recently, in September, Lindsey Wilson had a real good showing at the Collegiate Track National Championships. I had loaned them a few track bikes and they represented my brand well. As of late, I have been asked by a growing group of folks the dreaded question... "werent you supposed to be building bikes for XXXXXX?" Its difficult for me to discuss because of how it all went down, and the less said, the better.

Since that time, I had discovered quite a bit of talent at LWC. Depsite the distance between Speedway, Indiana and Columbia, Kentucky, I look forward to be able to assist these talented young riders, whether on position or technique or training tips, whenever possible. This is something I would have loved to have done on a more local level.


Thanks for reading.
