Our Story

About the Grupetto

In cycling, the grupetto (Italian for "little group") refers to the group of riders who band together at the back of the race, supporting each other to make it to the finish line within the time limit. It's about camaraderie, resilience, and finding joy in the journey rather than just the destination.

That's exactly what this community represents - a place for cyclists who aren't necessarily the fastest, but who share an authentic passion for the sport. Whether you're grinding up your first hill climb or watching the pros race, we celebrate every aspect of cycling culture.

Passion First

We believe cycling is about more than speed - it's about the love of the ride

Community Focused

Building connections between cyclists of all levels and backgrounds
