\u201cWe are very excited to welcome Amped as an official partner to the FNB W2W,\u201d says Michael Meyer, FNB W2W MTB Director. \u201cAs the organizers of the FNB W2W we\u2019re continuously striving to improve the rider experience at each of the three events. Amped will provide a fantastic service to all riders taking part in 2014. They will be able to stay in contact with their loved ones while taking on the FNB W2W MTB Challenge. Our team can also stay connected for longer while out on route\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cAccess to power is one of the major rider needs on events,\u201d says Rob Wright, a keen mountain biker and Founder of Amped Portable Power. \u201cCommunication at the event is imperative to everyone, from riders to the event crew. Race villages are inundated with demands to charge phones, GPS devices, cameras etc. Amped provides the power to stay in touch with work, friends and family\u201d.<\/p>\n
