Tom Ritchey is not only the founder of Project Rwanda, he’s also a mountain bike industry pioneer and legend.  Many of Ritchey’s original frames are still being ridden today by his passionate followers.  Chris Kostman with AdventureCORPS (one of our event’s original sponsors) recently posted this blog story about Tom’s early days and the history of Ritchey Bikes.  Read the full article at Tom Ritchey in His Own Words.

Tom and his lovely wife Martha rode in our 50 Mile Ride event last year on a hand-made Ritchey tandem mountain bike.  Maybe we’ll see them again this year on our trails?  Join us and meet them in person.
