The Ball Mauler exists because misery loves company.
This site was born to spread the word about the first Ball Mauler ride. It continues to live on to bring more riders together for epic fun on ruthless rides. Zach Brown and Peter Thomsen are the instigators for the rides you find here. Peter is a lifelong cyclist, photographer, and graphic designer. Zach is a financial advisor for Edward Jones in Scotts Valley and comes up with ride ideas like 100 miles, 10,000 feet of climbing on a single speed mtb and Everesting on Winter Solstice.

Santa Cruz, across the Golden Gate Bridge and back in a day.
