After falling in love with cycling at the age of 13 and winning bicycle races at an early age, Chad Barentsen shares with us his re-found love of cycling after 9 years off the bike. We learn the secrets to his journey back to the top of the podium has been over the last three years. He shares how he regained his focus and started training—and winning again. We talk about how he approaches sponsorship as a give and take between rider and company, based on mutual passion and respect, and why we chose to sponsor Chad at Dispatch Custom Cycling Components. He’s a talented rider and ambassador for the sport of cycling, and he's got a great community built around him.
Ride Your Ride is presented by Dispatch Custom Cycling Components and is an exploration of the bicycle and how it is used, enjoyed and sometimes destroyed by riders of all types. Join us on our mission to get more people on their bicycles more often.
