First of all, Dana is an 8 time Master’s World Cycling Champion and 15 time Master’s National Champion. So she’s kinda ok at riding bikes. But really, it’s this passion for bicycling that led her to introduce the sport of cycling to thousands of individuals through co-founding Walton Endurance. Utilizing her skills as an MS degreed educator, and as a mother of three, Dana developed a corporate cycling program that took colleagues from couch potato to endurance cyclist in 5 months.

She also helped design & manage a cross country bike ride for a F500 company which changed the corporate culture. After 3 years, the corporation saw what she remarked on after the first day of the event: “it’s more than a bike ride” Over the 10 years she worked on it, the U.S ride expanded across the globe and has since raised over 12 million dollars for cancer research.

Samson is our in-house Gen Z translator, jack-of-all trades marketer who grew up in the Rocky Mountains of Central Idaho where he spent his days mountain biking, skiing, cliff jumping and much more. Samson Graduated from University of Idaho in Moscow with a Bachelor of Science in Marketing Analytics and Certificate in Entrepreneurship. During his college years he was very active on the Executive board of his fraternity, acting as Recruitment Chair, as well as several terms as Social Chair, going on to be elected to VP of Public Relations for the Interfraternal Council on campus.

Graduating in spring of 2020 meant the job market for new grads wasn’t looking so hot. So Samson went back to the ski industry having already been there for 10 years.

He then made the transition to the corporate world in 2021, once the market was regular. After two years at a marketing agency in Boise, he got tired of the corporate droll and took a chance with freelance marketing and web design and hasn’t looked back since.

When he’s not skiing, skating, biking or somewhere else outside, you’ll find him on stage performing stand-up comedy all over Boise, ID and the Northwest.

Robbie is an economic developer with 19 years of experience making deals with big deal companies. He works with businesses of all shapes and sizes, from helping small businesses trying to get by, to negotiating with Fortunate 1000 companies. His efforts have supported the creation of more than 10,500 jobs. While creating jobs and investments had consumed his life, in 2018 Robbie realized that life is best lived focused on God, family, and health. At 295 lbs, he had one choice - start moving and get healthy. Despite growing up loving bikes as a kid, he lost this enthusiasm as an adult. But, in 2019 his health journey led to cycling thanks to a little care and a bike given by a dear friend. Today, Robbie credits cycling with saving his life and mental health. Through saddle time and diet (vegan-ish), he has lost nearly 90 lbs and loves a good race. Though there is much growth to achieve, he is proud that he has competed in several gravel races and completed Ironman 70.3 North Carolina, feats that a few years ago were impossible. Robbie joined Cycling Quests hoping to bridge his skills of working with businesses and government and his passion for health and cycling to make a difference in local communities and grow the gravel community.
