Comment: “This is a great chance to be a part of something really positive in cycling. Of course the sport is improving and a campaign such as Bike Pure is not only sending out the right messages but they are doing something about it. Its great to be associated with people who want to do good for the sport! I’m tired of turning on my PC and reading about all the negative things in cycling, its time we changed our attitudes and started focusing on our real champions. I hope many more riders will take part in Bike Pure and together we can restore the sport to its former glory. Its a great sport! Ride safe, ride hard and Bike Pure!”
