Lauren and I want to thank Johnny Mac & Brian Mackenzie, all of the CrossFit Affiliates, and the entire CrossFit community for these dream bikes. All of you have blessed us beyond our wildest dreams. We launched this website and program hoping to make a difference for people, but nothing could have prepared us for the love and friendship that has come our way. Thank you!

Greg and Lauren Glassman
