uRide.tv on Track to Deliver Video on Demand and Live Streaming for 2012

With more than 400 booked Race Events, Bike Shop Grand Openings, Tours, National Championships, 2012 Olympics and Festivals, uRide.tv is on a serious growth spree!
“It’s an unbelievable journey the team is fortunate enough to be a part of,” says Sami Tauber, CEO of BikeWear World. BikeWear World L.L.C. is both an e-commerce clothing store and a media company for cyclists. BikeWear World and uRide.tv focus on BMX, Mountain Biking, Motocross, Road, Spin, Track and Triathlons for gear and video. uRide.tv, the media company, is the virtual experience for cycling, comprised of a video database of manufacturers, race events and bike shops. It specializes in live streaming cycling race events with video commercial integration; as well as, video highlights and video on demand. “The video database contains more than 1,000 videos to date, with 2012 shaping up to be our biggest year yet for production,” says Tauber.

With the advanced technology available, the uRide.tv team is able to offer video on demand of live stream race events, product launches, bike shop grand openings, VIP parties, tours, nationals, championships and trade shows. On the site, there are lists of local, national or international bike shops with video coverage, race event information featuring video highlight coverage and links to bike parts demonstrating thru video, the latest products released from industry trade shows. It is even possible to upload a bike shop listing for FREE, a race event listing for FREE, or even a cycling video. The goal was to create a virtual destination that cyclists can call home,” says Sami Tauber, CEO of www.uRide.tv.

uRide.tv will be live streaming the Sea Otter Classic, which is the largest cycling festival in the world. “Sea Otter attracts more than 50,000 cyclists and fans every year, where they are immersed in dozens of races, product demos, family-oriented events and more than 350 exhibitors showing off the latest in cycling services and products. A four-day “Celebration of Cycling”, Sea Otter Classic is regarded as the world's largest cycling festival, hosting nearly 10,000 professional and amateur athletes. The 22nd Annual Sea Otter Classic is April 19-22, 2012 at Laguna Seca Recreation Area, Monterey, California,” according to the Sea Otter Classic media director Donna Brown.

uRide.tv will also be creating a video series called “On the Road to Sea Otter”, which will feature the top mountain biking team in Arizona. Five segmented video series will be created and produced on the team, including topics like mental preparedness, strategy, training and gear. “On the Road to Sea Otter” will prove to be a fun way to get training tips, cycling information, entertainment and racing strategies in real time.

With the Summer Olympics quickly approaching, uRide.tv has been able to secure a seat to also live stream the 2012 Olympic Media Summit; road races like the Tour of Gila, Callville Bay Classic, San Dimas Stage race, Redlands, Cascade Cycling Classic; criterium races like the Delray Beach Twilight, Old Pueblo Grand Prix, Athens Twilight, Charlotte Criterium, Tour De Grove; and featured video highlights from Tour of California, Tour of Utah, Exergy Tour, Liberty/ Philly, USA Pro Cycling Challenge in Colorado, Univest GP and BMX Nationals. “Don’t miss our favorite manufacturers releasing their 2013 products with uRide.tv on video at several of the industry trade shows this year! These are very exciting times for us,” says Tauber. Make uRide.tv your video destination!”
