The Latin speakers of ancient Rome were the first to travel simply for the experience. Sentio was the word they would use when they felt an emotion about the experience. With that as our basis, Sentio Cycling designs, develops, produces and supports cycling tours for charity fundraisers, unique corporate events and customized private groups across the country. Leave it up to us to craft the perfect cycling trip to match your group’s personality, and be there for every step of the way to ensure a truly SENTIO experience!

The Team Behind Your Success
ELI – Chief Experience Officer
Of all places, it was on the University of Colorado Freestyle Ski Team where Eli first discovered his love of biking during their annual fall mountain biking trips to Moab, Utah. Upon graduation, Eli moved to Steamboat Springs, Colorado (affectionately known as Bike Town, USA), where he managed the local radio stations for nearly a decade. There he created and produced events both large and small, but continually felt an itch to explore. The only answer was a 6-month sabbatical, during which Eli and his wife travelled the world. In their tour of 16 countries across 6 continents, Eli continually sought out activities that would push the boundaries of his comfort zone, each time learning more about himself. Once home, Eli was fortunate to land a job as Director of Business Development with the active travel company Iconic Adventures. Here, he helped create, develop and lead events for corporate and non-profit groups all over the world. This included designing and producing cycling tours of all sizes and paces, including supporting the world record co-ed 4-person team in the Race Across America that powered from Oceanside, CA to Annapolis, MD in just under six days! From his work with Iconic Adventures, an opportunity arose for Eli to share his passion for experiences that challenge the mind and grow the soul with his love of cycling. And, it was then that Sentio Cycling was born!
ERIN – Director of Innovation
Growing up in the mountains of North Carolina, Erin has always had a passion for the outdoors. From biking to trail running to kayaking to snowboarding, she naturally has a very adventurous spirit. Upon graduating from the University of North Carolina and moving to Steamboat Springs in 2006, she quickly discovered and fell in love with mountain biking. To help her endurance in the off-season, she would train on a road bike and through the winters in spinning classes. Through that training she gained more interest in road biking, along with triathlons, and enjoyed competition once again, outside of the tennis court and off of the soccer field. During her time in Steamboat Springs, Erin has worked for two incredible companies in the outdoor industry: SmartWool and Honey Stinger. While she absolutely loved her time at SmartWool, she left after a few years with her adventurous spirit in mind to travel with her husband for six months around the world. Upon her return, she landed a job with Honey Stinger where she was able to work on the marketing team, with a specific focus on events. Being able to travel around with the USA Pro Challenge a couple of years was certainly an event marketing highlight for Erin, as was her heavy involvement in the development, production and support of the Steamboat Stinger Mountain Bike Race and Trail Marathon. Through the Steamboat Stinger, Erin gained a wealth of knowledge and experience in not only event production, but also, competitive event production. At Sentio Cycling, Erin is thrilled to combine her passion for cycling with her detail-oriented nature in event production, and be able to share Sentio experiences with other adventurous spirits.
OUR TEAM
Our team of Trip Development Managers and Leaders come from a wide array of backgrounds, but all share one common passion: creating extraordinary experiences for their guests. Many have years of experience developing and leading countless tours across the country, and even in some of the most picturesque international destinations. Others are simply magicians when it comes to wrenching on a bike. We have support staff that feel more comfortable behind the wheel of a 15-passenger van than their own personal vehicles. And, almost all would rather be out living the experience than reading about others who are. Because of the varied strengths and experience of our team, Sentio Cycling has the ability to put together custom cycling trips for our clients whenever, wherever, and however will best fit their individual needs and goals.
