Eric Favot

WEBC Brand Ambassador

Eric is a former professional BMX rider and recently turned mountain biker! He has been riding BMX since 1999 and was introduced to the sport at the original Amherstburg Skatepark. As a younger rider, Eric looked up to the older generation of riders, who helped motivate and push him to become the rider he is today. 

As a professional rider, Eric competed in expert and professional level contests all across Canada and the USA.  He earned a spot as a performer with Krusher Stunt Team, showcasing his talents and spreading his passion for riding to thousands of people throughout North America!
 

Fast forward 20+ years and now Eric is that older rider that aims to be a positive role model to current and new riders across Windsor Essex County.


Currently living in Windsor, Eric's vision is to be an active member of WEBC and help improve the cycling community in Windsor Essex County!

WEBC Brand Ambassador

Meet Karly Modolo! WEBC’s newest Brand Ambassador Athlete!!

 

Windsor Essex Bike Community is thrilled to announce that Karly will be teaming up with WEBC to help promote our cause and help grow riding in Windsor & Essex County!

 

Karly is an outstanding triathlon athlete who is really excited to use her platform to improve local cycling and help promote riding for more female riders!

 

Karly started racing in triathlons in 2017 and quickly found success! In 2017, she qualified for the World Triathlon Championships in Denmark with Team Canada after placing 3rd in a 70.3 mile half-Ironman event! 

 

Since then Karly has raced 5 more half-Ironman events and over came some incredibly difficult personal life challenges. Overcoming a personal assault and a very serious riding accident, Karly has shown unbelievable resolve and personal strength to get back on the bike and continue racing! 

 

Her story is inspiring for everyone and just another reason why WEBC feels so fortunate to have someone of Karly’s character joining our team.
