In addition to gathering with over 700 of the county’s most passionate cycling advocates, industry players and cycling legends like Gary Fisher, there were many exciting moments and developments during this week’s 10th annual Bicycle Summit in Washington D.C.

Now we are six just turned to now we are seven. Our little red-headed boy Luca Dante Rugiero turned seven today and we are celebrating in every way we can.
