Hailing from Portland, Ore., Bennett enjoys exploring the mountain passes and backroads of the Pacific Northwest on skinny tires. Having worked in various roles in the cycling industry since 2008 has helped Bennett develop an impressive knowledge base and thorough understanding of cycling gear and tech.
Although he wouldn’t call himself a retrogrouch, he does have an irrational love of rim brakes and a fondness for boutique steel frames. After racing on paved and gravel roads for a decade, Bennett turned his focus to achieving personal goals including three Everests and climbing over 1 million vertical feet in 2020. Although he rides (and sleeps) less since starting a family, he still enjoys pushing the pace on climbs and ripping fast descents as much as ever.
