ALMSTHRE = Almost There

Being "almost there" can be subjective but we want to know why. We want to understand, why do you ride? why bikes? where are you going and where have you been? Regardless the answer we want to come along, we want to ride with you.

What does it mean to be "Almost there"?

"Almost there for me is when I'm taking my friends on one of those those long adventure rides and there's like 15 climbs left but I just keep reassuring them that we're we're almost there so it's kind of what gets the whole group through the trials and tribulations of riding." - Sofia 
"To be almost there to me means more than just the location in which you're going it's about the journey and the process and the people you're with as you get to that point and honestly I want to live in a world where I'm constantly almost there cuz then I never have to finish the wonderful experience." - Ansel
