About Us

Established in 2009

Revolve has evolved quite rapidly since founders Ashley and Marjolein met in March 2009 at a mountain bike race called the Screaming ‘O. What started as a casual Saturday morning road ride group quickly grew into an enthusiastic Taupo training group. They had such a great time with the ladies that they got to thinking: maybe we’re on to something!

And the rest is history…

Revolve has grown in multiple ways over the years. By 2015, over 1000 people had signed up to the "Weekly Revolver" e-newsletter to stay in the loop. We have Facebook and Instagram pages in full swing, with more and more likes rolling in. The number of rides, social trips, community events and other fun cycling activities has multiplied over the years, and to keep up and stay on top of all this Revolve has had an established Crew (committee) since 2011. Meet the current committee HERE.
