How Parkinson's Disease Changed My Life at 36

In January of 2019, at the age of 36, I received some news that would change my life. I have Parkinson's Disease," says David Blanchard, one of our Pactimo Ambassador Club members.

Riding With Family

Riding With Family

2,408 miles in 12 days - TCRN06

2,408 miles in 12 days - TCRN06

Perhaps I’d set my sights a little high but I’d now targeted TCR as my first real venture into endurance racing.

The Pactimo Ambassador Experience

The Pactimo Ambassador Experience

As a rider, I’m picky [my friends say tweaky] about my kit. If we dress sharp, we feel good…If we feel good, we go well. The proper cycling shoe color is white, because it’s Euro, and because the European continent is the Mothership of all cycling. Life is way too short to bother with bargain kit.
