Ascend Cycle + Underground celebrated its 5th anniversary in November, with a week long celebration that ended with a community social at Charlie’s on the Avenue. Ascend recognized its members and loyal customers during this client appreciation week with giveaways, big discounts, themed rides, and special classes. While this celebration focused on five years of support from the Del Ray community, none of it would have been possible without the leadership of Kat Zajac. Thank you to Del Ray, our community of strength, for consistently showing up to become a better version of yourself.

Ascend Cycle is a local, woman-owned, nonfranchise business that offers cycle and strength training classes, as well as health coaching and an online wellness community.
