Ben Vold, the owner of BV Bike Doc, grew up in a small town in Indiana where he was able to ride his bike anywhere and everywhere. His love for bikes started early whether it was riding them or tearing them apart and putting them back together. He started his career in the cycling industry working at the local bike shop in Muncie, Indiana where he went to college. After graduating from Ball State in May of ‘99 he moved to Colorado and worked at various bike shops on the front range. He has been an avid cyclist ever since. In 2006 he took a break from bikes to pursue a pharmacy degree. In 2019, he moved to the Buena Vista area. Although he enjoyed pharmacy his true passion has always been most things on two wheels. He even has two bikes hanging in his bedroom and one in his living room at all times. In both professions, Ben was able to serve his community and bring health and happiness to people. While he does sometimes ride a road bike, he is definitely a mountain biker at heart. To be specific, single speed all the way! When it comes to bikes, Ben subscribes to the doctrine that ‘n+1’ is the appropriate number of bikes to have in the quiver as long as they each fill their own specific niche. In this way, he can justify having three different single speeds, as each has its own ride characteristic for different moods. All in all,any day when one gets to turn the cranks is a good day!
Hope to see you all on the trails!
