hi. this is us.



Ronnie is Skipper of Rons Bikes dot com, also LaRon.  All designs are LaRon brain waves.  Ronnie is typing this, so "i" will switch to first person.  Hi. I am all things Rons Bikes Dot Com. 

I also co own a tire company, ULTRADYNAMICO, and am an amateur semi pro photographer for hire.  I design a few handlebars and frames for crust bikes that are generally sold through crust.

I eat mostly beans, olive oil, granola, and dark chocolate.  I enjoy foraging for my vegetables.  I like riding single track more than most things in life, and it's been like that since i was 13.  I play drums sometimes, and my favorite bands are Agalloch and early Opeth.  I grew up in Clinton CT in the 90s CT X HC scene and went to college to be a gym teacher and race mountain bikes in Durango CO.  I never got to live my dream as a gym scholar racer, but my current reality was undreamable when being guided by my high school guidance counselor in 1998, so.... sometimes dreams end up better than dreams!   

Tenzin and i have been happily married but-not-married for 10 years, and live with their family in the traditional way on a 200 year old farm house in the countryside of the lower Connecticut river valley.  We hope to travel as much as we can to experience the beauty and brutality of the outdoors! 

 
☻Hi, Tenzin (or) Arya (she/her) reporting as 1st Mate at Rons Bikes and 1st generation Tibetan-American. I take care of production, structural organization, and quality control to the best of my wits.

I'm proud to have been a climate justice organizer and having learned the love for bike travel while my back was still good. Living as root-less ramblers off our bicycles with Ronnie for 4 years, I found community and confidence as a co-founder of Radical Adventure Riders. An intentional group for FTW/NB riders to find each other and share in bike joy together in mutual understanding and love of bike travel at the intersections of identity.

Grown from my love of long bicycle tours, I have an appetite for ultra endurance races like the Tour Divide, which I attempted twice (2021, 2023) and hope to tour fully with friends in the near future. I feel my best when I have ridden bikes regularly and happiest at home.
