Chasing Growth & Building Community: Off-Season Training with 2Fast

Growth Never Takes a Season Off
When winter sets in, many riders park their bikes and wait for warmer days. Not
Mark DeGross of 2Fast. Instead of slowing down, he heads south, keeping his
skills sharp, refining techniques, and training with some of the best riders in the sport—because real progress
never takes a season off.
Riding with Legends: A Humbling & Inspiring Experience
The photo of bike #4 holds a special meaning for Mark. He’s a few bikes back on the first corner after the start, sharing the track with some serious talent—including Josh Hayes, Deion Campbell, Bryce Prince, Jayson Uribe, Cory Alexander, Andrew Lee, Nick Ciling, and James Rispoli.
Lining up against
Josh Hayes, a multi-time AMA champion, was an unforgettable moment. While
Mark finished 7th to Josh’s 4th, the experience wasn’t just about results—it was about
learning, growing, and embracing the challenge of racing alongside some of the best. The
BPR team’s camaraderie, mentorship, and good-natured competition made the weekend one to remember.
Why the Off-Season is the Best Time to Improve
Many riders take winter off, but those looking to level up use it as a chance to fine-tune their craft. Whether it’s:
- Training with top-tier riders to learn from their experience
- Receiving expert coaching to correct habits and refine skills
- Staying mentally sharp so you return to the track stronger than ever
The off-season is where
champions are made, and dedicated riders separate themselves from the pack.
