Founders Forum
My love for bikes started with the first BMX bike I had as a kid. Life
became a series of moments between the opportunities I had to get out and ride
again. As I got a little older it started to open doors to new places and
people and my eyes to new environments and opportunities.
Fast forward to today . . . Nothing has changed, it still
provides me the same opportunities regularly. My most creative moments take
place in the moment between breathes deep in the mental journey that takes
place while rolling. It gives me priority to my concerns and provides me the
insight to better manage my life. It has taken me around the globe to
moments and situations I could have never dreamed. It's introduced me to people
I could have never had the chance to meet; in some cases those people have
change my life to the point I can't imagine not having them around. The doors are
still opening and my eyes are still being filled with opportunities that continue
to amaze me . . . 2 wheels have evolved into my ticket to ride!
I like to think that ENVE is a celebration of this concept/opportunity. When I
started the company it was my goal to fill the walls with people that had the
same appreciation of the Experience. A "Celebration of a Riding Lifestyle"
a vibe that can only be found on 2 wheels. We dump our interests, passions, and
expectations into every aspect of the business. The products are clean and
clearly designed by people that ride and want to create a “no compromise”
something that they dream of riding. We treat our customers like someone we
ride with; after all we are riding with you when you ride ENVE. Hopefully
our products produce a joy and appreciation for the ideas we worked so hard to
incorporate into each specific piece.
So over the past five years I have had some of the most amazing and sometimes insane
moments while chasing this dream. People have told me I should share these
experiences to help illustrate what ENVE and our culture is all about. This forum
will be my attempt to do this; I hope it will represent all people who love the
flavor as much as I do. It will include stories about places we travel and the
events that are associated. I will include bits from some of the bike industry
players that I have been lucky enough to get to know. I hope that I can
communicate the experiences well, because they have been entertaining displays of
people that truly get and celebrate a "Ride Life".
