How in the heck did you end up in Missoula, Montana?

Read a short history of our how we came to be and be in Montana. We’re located in a wonderful state for bicycling, and our mission meshes well with the vibrant, creative community of Missoula. Finally, it’s a great excuse for people from more crowded areas pay a visit to the mecca for bicycle travel and experience the beauty of Big Sky Country.

What are some of the reasons that people travel by bicycle?

Many cyclists whom we encounter are in the midst of a life transition, having recently graduated from college or other institution, retired, or having experienced a loss or an addition in their lives. Some of them are simply looking for a new challenge, or they’re on the road to raise money and awareness about a cause or issue about which they feel impassioned. Some are just out to have fun!
