What Brands Are Saying

Real feedback from brands that have activated at K2 Road Sports locations

Working with an outdoor gear brand on a sampling activation at our 100-mile charity ride was fantastic. Not only did riders have something memorable to take home, but the brand's engagement helped us build relationships with new sponsors who saw the authentic connection with our cycling community. Definitely doing this again next season.

Velocity Cycling Gran Fondo

Brand Partner

We partnered with a sports nutrition brand for sampling at our annual 70.3 event, and the activation brought incredible energy to the expo. Our athletes were genuinely excited to try products from real sponsors, and it created a seamless experience that boosted our sponsor retention for next year. The platform made the entire coordination process painless.

Brand Partner

The brand activation we hosted at our summer trail race filled a gap we didn't know we had. Participants appreciated the post-race recovery stations, and we actually generated an unexpected revenue stream that helped offset our event costs. It felt authentic to our community rather than forced marketing.
