Meet the most interesting man in the Peloton, Ryan Wells. Ryan is one of the most outgoing, friendly, and genuine guys you’ll meet. Ryan grew up in the Olympus Cove neighborhood skating, playing the guitar, and working on his tan at his parent’s swimming pool. He went to high school at Skyline and later got both a degree and postgraduate degree from the University of Utah.

Ryan is living the life that many of us think about living when we are daydreaming on the bike. Ryan teaches during the school year and travels around the world cycling during the summer. As an example, in the past year, Ryan has biked in Austria, Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, France, Spain, Mallorca, and the Canary Islands. Additionally, he has biked and attended several stages of the Giro, Tour de France, and Vuelta all within the last year. Ryan has been living in Spain during the 23/24 school year teaching English.

Ryan has followed his passions to the extreme. Ryan is passionate about learning, teaching, cycling, oh and the grateful dead. Ryan has leveraged his passion for learning and teaching to become one of the state of Utah’s best teachers. Ryan teaches Spanish at Taylorsville High School. He was awarded Teacher of the Year in Granite School District and nominated as Teacher of the Year by the State of Utah Board of Education. He’s followed his passion for cycling to become one of the most consistent and strongest cyclists on the team. Don’t let his 27-minute Emigration time fool you. Ryan is a freight train that will get his power to about 280 watts and just park it there for hours. He finished on the podium for Lotoja last year and he’s charging for the top spot this year.

If you are lucky enough to ride next to Ryan, be sure to chat with him about his favorite dead show or his favorite podcast. He’ll chat your ear off. He’s a great dude and I’m stoked he is part of the team.
