RaceQuest Favorites
We could just as easily have named this page "Stuff we love!" The products, services and organizations you see here are things we use ourselves; things we recommend and believe in. Years of world travel have played a part in shaping our endorsements. You could say we're a bit picky, but we only share things here that have passed our own real-world tests.
NEVERSECOND
NEVERSECOND is focused on one important mission: producing the finest science-driven performance nutrition for endurance sports athletes. Formulated precisely to help you fuel properly, NEVERSECOND gels, drinks and recovery products provide an effective solution to combat gut / GI issues during training and racing, while sustaining your energy with none of those unnecessary ingredients.
Founded in 2020 by four competitive endurance athletes including their Chief Scientific Officer, Dr. Asker Jeukendrup, NEVERSECOND seeks to bring everyday athletes the same performance nutrition products and nutritional guidance that world champions and Olympians receive. They leverage science to achieve this. If something cannot be scientifically verified through multiple research studies, you will not find it in their products. All products are tested in the lab and in “real world” training and racing athletes to ensure that they are always the best they can be. All NEVERSECOND products are clean and batch tested free of banned substances by Informed Sport.
RaceQuest is proud to partner with NEVERSECOND to provide expert fueling guidance and products for all of our events, and we encourage you to reach out to them to try the products and tap their extensive knowledge and experience to dial in your fueling. Anytime you shop at never2.com, use the code RACEQUEST15 to get 15% off of your purchases.
OGIO TRAVEL GEAR
The RaceQuest crew depends on OGIO bags and gear.
There are backpacks, travel bags, duffel bags, rollers, etc. and then there’s OGIO. Since day one at RaceQuest we have taken a careful approach when curating items that help us travel better. Our OGIO products have stood the test of time and literally traveled with us through airports, trains, mountain hikes, road trips, race transition areas, checkpoints and occasionally, conference rooms. OGIO is a high quality brand and partner from San Diego, California.
LUGGAGE FORWARD
We've worked with the team at LuggageForward.com for a few years now. They help us and our clients get bikes and gear shipped door-to-door promptly. You can use them for one-way or round-trip shipments.
Here's the real bonus when you ship your travel items ahead: Free yourself up for further travels, and avoid TSA and airline hassle, avoid spending extra time in the Oversize Luggage claim area. (Yep, we’ve been there, done that!)
