Blake Herbold ~ Athlete's Story

A little bit about me:

My cycling journey began in 2018 when I moved east and found no waves, so I traded in the sport of surfing for cycling. The need for speed drew me to competitive racing across multiple disciplines in Road, Mountain, Gravel, and Cyclocross, fueling a passion for pushing my limits and honing my racecraft. Representing the USA Deaf Cycling Team at the 2021 Summer Deaflympics in Brazil was a true honor, and the near miss of a medal has only intensified my determination as I train hard today for another opportunity at the 2025 Summer Deaflympics in Tokyo.

A few Notable Achievements include:

  1. 4th Place @ the 2022 Deaflympics 1,000m Sprint at Caxias Do Sul, Brazil
  2. 10th Place @ the 2022 Deaflympics Time Trial at Caxias Do Sul, Brazil
  3. 1st place @ the 2022 Dirty Kitten Gravel Race (Full Purrito)
  4. 1st place @ the 2023 Dirty Kitten Gravel Race (Supreme Purrito)
  5. 3rd place @ the 2023 MABRA Masters Road Race Championships at Poolesville
  6. 3rd place @ the 2024 MABRA Masters Mountain Bike Championships at DCXC
  7. 3rd place @ the 2024 Armed Forces Cycling Classic at Clarendon Cup

I currently race for DC Velo Limited.  I am most excited to race with the best Deaf Cyclists in the world and my current personal moto is: You are unstoppable!
