The Right Direction Youth Development Program

We are absolutely thrilled to share a very special moment from our “The Right Direction” non-profit program!

Give it up for Erie, one of our absolute rockstars on the Black Swamp Riders mountain bike team! Erie has been absolutely killing it out on the trails, but she recently hit a major roadblock: she completely outgrew her old bike. To keep pushing her limits and progressing as an athlete, she needed a serious upgrade.

Thanks to for the nomination we were able to gift Erie a brand-new, perfectly fitted MTB.

With this new machine under her, she is officially ready to dominate the upcoming scholastic racing season. We are super stoked to watch her fly and can’t wait to see what she accomplishes next.

We met Remi a few weeks ago at the LLS/Blood Cancer United Visionaries of the Year Grand Finale, and his infectious smile and inspiring story made a lasting impression on us!

After the event, we connected with Remi’s mom to see if we could surprise him with a new bike. We learned that he’ll be celebrating his 4th birthday in July and that he loves being outside, so we knew it was the perfect gift!!

We were thrilled to surprise him with an early birthday present and hope that he has an epic summer filled with more smiles, adventures, and plenty of miles on his new bike!

If you know a deserving child in the Northwest Ohio area who could benefit from a new bike, we’d love to hear from you

Sending out a huge HAPPY BIRTHDAY to this RAD DAD and TRD MX and Wake Director Eric Blasiman!! The machine wouldn’t do what it can do without you! Have a great day man!

Sending out a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Athlete Ambassadors Avery Secory! Keep being awesome on and off the track!
