WHY PADBIKE?
Looking for inspiration at every turn
PadBike is a project born from the passion that my brother and I share for the world of Mountain Bike. The idea was born in 2019 with the aim of addressing two problems that we personally encountered, namely the difficulty of meeting new people who are passionate about mountain biking and the desire to discover new paths that could give us stronger emotions than those we were used to.
When we realized that we were not the only ones who felt these needs, we wanted to get involved and try to remedy it. From here the idea of creating a community was born, a virtual place in which to connect as many people as possible united by a passion for cycling.
This brought us to PadBike.
So, to the question 'why PadBike?' we hope to be able to answer that PadBike represents an opportunity. The opportunity to create something wonderful that unites people and builds solid bonds, based on the possibility of sharing the same passion: that of mountain biking.
Starting from December 2022 Padbike has officially become a Sports Association
