Meet Our Host: Connor Fields
3x Olympian & Gold Medalist
Olympic Gold Medalist, Connor Fields, will be joining us for the weekend. Connor brings a powerful perspective to the event after years of competing in BMX Racing with USA Cycling. He’ll share stories from his time on the world stage—from the highest of highs, winning Olympic gold in Rio, to the lowest of lows, recovering from a life-altering crash at the Tokyo Olympics. His journey through triumph and adversity shows just how much heart, resilience, and passion go into the sport we love.
We're fortunate to be joined by our National Team athletes throughout the event. We'll be announcing more athletes as we get closer, but here's who is confirmed so far:
