- Robbie Ventura
Robbie Ventura raced professionally for 11 years with his last four years being on Lance Armstrong’s US Postal squad. Robbie was a criterium specialist and amassed over 70 victories over his 12 year pro career. He also rode the Track World Championships in Hamar Norway and placed 5th in the elimination. Robbie has been racing competitively on the dirt, road and track since the age of 7 and has over 25 years of racing experience.
Robbie graduated with honors from Lake Forest College with a double-major in Business and Psychology. He started Vision Quest Coaching six years ago, and the success of his athletes has helped VQ grow to three locations, 20 coaches, and over 200 athletes. Robbie works with all types of endurance athletes--from weekend warriors to Ironman age groupers to world-class competitors.
Robbie helped produce and star in “Race Day” which is one of the nation’s leading training DVD’s on the market. He has done commercials and print work for Nike and USPS, but he made his commentating debut with OLN in 2006 alongside Al Trautwig and Bob Roll discussing the Tour de France. Robbie’s passion for helping others and love of cycling has allowed him to do what he loves for a living... Ride his bike!
When not riding, Robbie loves playing hockey, golf, wakeboarding and skiing, and especially spending time with his wife, Lori, and their four children: Luna, Enzo, Luciana, and Rocky.
