While he might not be in yellow on Saturday, 2006 Tour de France champion Oscar Pereiro will be leading the RTC Viva Bike Vegas 2013 Gran Fondo as Grand Marshal.
“The sheer environment and energy a ride like Viva Bike Vegas offers is impressive,” said Periero. “With my passion for this sport, coupled with a city where the cycling culture is ever-growing, I couldn’t pass on the opportunity to ride through the famous Las Vegas Strip and some of the most majestic and unique destinations in the world, such as the Red Rock Conservation Area.”
RTC Viva Bike Vegas 2013 Gran Fondo will occur at the conclusion of this week’s Interbike, and the annual cycling event offers routes for all skill levels, including a 104-mile Gran Fondo, a 61-mile Metric Century, and a 17-mile ride. This year’s RTC Viva Bike Vegas 2013 Gran Fondo will begin under the lights of the famous Las Vegas Strip and go through downtown Las Vegas.
The 2013 International CES (formerly the Consumer Electronics Show) is just days away and The Consumer Electronics Association announced that the show will feature a record amount of exhibit space, with the show floor totaling more than 1.87 million net square feet – up from last year’s record setting 1.862 million net square feet.
Fitness is once again going to be a part of the International CES the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) announced this week as more than 215 exhibitors will showcase the latest in digital health and fitness technologies at January.
To say that this week is “bike week” is surely an understatement. Today kicks off the Outdoor Demo Days in Boulder City where dozens of bicycle companies offer a chance for attendees to test the latest bikes and gear, while Wednesday is the kick off of Interbike, followed by the 2012 Viva Bike Vegas Grand Fondo on Saturdya.
Next week’s Interbike trade show will see the addition of two additional communities including a new Triathlon Pavilion, which is there to embrace the spirit of the sport. It is hosted by Triathlon Business International and will feature tri-specific educational seminars, including two sessions by Kristen Carroll, Active.com’s VP of Corporate Communications.
