BikeFlights.com launched its first ever Brand Ambassador Program at the Sea Otter Classic last weekend. The new program supports racers who travel frequently to train and compete in events.
“At BikeFlights.com, we help cyclists get their bikes to wherever they need to go,” said BikeFlights.com owner William Alcorn. “With our Ambassador Program, we’re making it easier for our talented ambassadors to get their bikes to races so they can spend their time, money and energy more effectively pursuing their cycling goals.”
For the 2015 season, BikeFlights.com is working with individual and team ambassadors from all cycling disciplines and from all over the US.
“We make it more affordable, more reliable and more convenient for our ambassadors to travel with their bikes,” said Sue George, BikeFlights.com Director of Communications. “They receive discounted bike shipping while enjoying all the benefits of BikeFlights.com’s outstanding bicycle shipping service.”
BikeFlights.com’s first Brand Ambassador, Vicki Barclay of the Stan’s NoTube Elite Women’s Team, said “I’m excited about not having to take my bike on airplanes and in taxis. BikeFlights.com is made up of people who are passionate about bikes – they ride and race bikes. So they understand how important it is to get your bike to the place it needs to be on time and in good condition.”
