“Born and raised on bikes, I’ve grown to love and understand bicycles deeply. Whether racing, riding for pleasure, or exploring new ground, the bicycle is a fun machine that opens up rad experiences. My parents frontiered the MTB revolution in late 70’s, and introduced the world of competitive off road cycling to me when I came of age and into the 1990’s. Since I was 3 yrs old, BMX was my passion, and in my 20’s it was roadies and fixed geared bikes. Now in my 30’s mountain bikes have become my passion, and through immersion in the sport I became an accomplished mechanic. After many years training and working at The Path Bike Shop, it was time to start RAD VAN BIKES and offer the community another option for the tireless on-the-go lifestyle Southern Californian’s live. I hope to build a mutually beneficial relationship with my biking community.” -Jesse Peterson
