Sponsoring Cycle OverRide
As it turns out, planning and executing a cross-country bike ride takes a lot of time, effort, and money. Thankfully, we have a number of very generous corporate sponsors who are supporting us in this crazy endeavor including:
That said, we’re still looking for another sponsor or two to help us defray the costs of this event. This is a great opportunity to get exposure for your company and show your support for an event that will be seen by and participated in by a number of information security professionals. Not only are we riding across the country with various infosec pros, but for the third year we are organizing an early morning bike ride at DefCon. The past two years have seen a shockingly large number of riders waking up before 6am to ride off in to the desert and enjoy the sights of Nevada. Even more surprising… everyone lived to tell the tale. 😉
We’ve also purchased an RV… A converted Sprinter van from Airstream. We’ll be putting sponsor logos on the outside of it and using it as our mobile command center. We’ll be posting regularly from the road, doing podcasts leading up to DefCon, etc, and the command center will be prominent in all of it.
Take a look at the sponsorship levels below. If you or your organization is interested in sponsoring us or has any questions, please drop me a line at gdead at shmoo dot com and I’ll get right back to you.
Also, don’t forget you can support the EFF on our behalf. They’re always happy to take donations.
