Entrepreneurial drive to turn personal passion into a lifestyle business
Not seeing much of a future selling his sole to the corporate world David took the leap of faith and started up Cycling-Inform. His dream was to use his passion for riding, his entrepreneurial drive, and his understanding of technology to create a business that could coach cyclists all around the world remotely via the internet. In the early days much of the focus was on using the internet to market physical products and services. This focus has changed to the delivery of online service offerings and training content as the market has matured.

After sustained growth for more than ten years it was time to take our lessons learned and focus on consolidating our business systems and marketing efforts.
