Elevate Rapid City

Welcome to this issue of Elevate the magazine, where the goal is to show all the ways the area is a world-class biking community, an amenity that attracts both locals and outsiders. There’s the story of two local physicians (also brothers) who have been promoting mountain biking in the Black Hills to their thousands of social media followers worldwide. Then there’s the tale of Ben Peck, who retrofitted a funky cool bike for delivering kegs from Hay Camp Brewing. Finally, there’s the inspiring cover story of Rapid City resident Mark Thompson, who has used biking to ease the suffering of a life-threatening illness. The story will warm your heart and your soul and leave you longing for a bike much cooler than your own.
