Hello! I’m Ted Redmer, new to the Philly Bike Expo Squad for 2024. I’ve been lucky enough to get to know some Squad members over the years and I’m stoked to join this inspiring team. I started riding bikes back in the ‘80s around the rural roads of northern central Maryland, rode mountain bikes extensively through the ‘90s and ‘00s, did a few triathlons in the ‘10s, and when gravel exploded I really felt “home” for the first time. For me, bikes are a way to reconnect with nature, my youth, deepen bonds with my friends, and spend time with my family. As a father of two amazing young ladies and husband to the best wife ever, cycling is the way I stay strong and healthy to be the best parent and partner I can be. In addition to cycling I spend a lot of time riding motorcycles, hiking, camping, and graphic design.
