Know Your PGV Rider! Derek Hensinger has been cycling for over 15 years and he and his wife Valerie have participated in every Pete's Good Vibes Foundation Barns and Beers Bike Tour to date. As one of Pete's nephews, he is grateful for the opportunity to give back and help others in need while getting outside and doing something he loves.
One of Derek's favorite aspects of the bike ride is curating a playlist and cranking the volume of the portable speaker in his bottle cage. "Every year I get compliments from people on the music, usually when folks are bearing down and pedaling hard up some of the hills on the route. I try to play songs that anyone would enjoy. You've got to keep it movin' & groovin'!"
