Hammer has been proud to support these events over the years—fueling riders, showing up with tents and banners, and standing alongside teams like Hammer SuperMasters, Team 53x11, Davis Phinney Foundation, Red Peloton, ThirstyBear, and so many more who’ve been part of this incredible community.
Now it’s our turn to give back.
Velo Promo is working to close out their legacy the right way—continuing races through 2026, supporting the NorCal racing community, and aiming to wrap things up without outstanding expenses. If you’ve ever pinned on a number at one of their events, cheered from the sidelines, or grabbed a sample of Hammer on race day, we encourage you to support.
