There's no better way to kick off the holiday season than with a big community bike ride full of cycling Santas!

Listen to get a registration discount code. It's been an annual holiday tradition since the Buffalo Lodge became the Buffalo Lodge Bicycle Resort 7 years ago. The first Saturday in December we trade in our kits for Santa Suits to ride a spread cheer through our community. The Cycling Santa benefits Christmas Unlimited and participants are encouraged to bring an unwrapped toy to help kids less fortunate in our community. The ride has something for every ability, from 6 to 10 miles to the 22 mile full route. The routes travel along the Pikes Peak Greenway and are all relatively flat. The long ride continues through downtown Colorado Springs and Old Colorado City to the Buffalo Lodge Bicycle Resort for a big waffle breakfast and party before heading back to the start. In this episode of “Pedal the Springs” we talk with the event organizer, volunteers and participants for all of the exciting details about the event.

When you’re suddenly in a leadership role at a young age, do you pretend to know it all so people won’t look down on you, or do you show your vulnerability and seek help? In this segment, we talk to Pikes Peak National Bank (https://ppnb.com/) . Robin opens up about being in counterintelligence in the army and her path to becoming the CEO of a bank. She also touches on being realistic as an entrepreneur and the value of vulnerability in making meaningful connections. Discover the steep learning curve every entrepreneur has to go through to succeed in business and how continuous learning is a critical piece of it. — Watch the episode: Listen to the podcast: Robin Roberts CEO Pikes Peak National Bank With Co-Host Catherine Wicklund CEO And Vistage Chair Southern Colorado We’re extremely fortunate because we have Robin Roberts. She’s the President and CEO of (https://www.vistage.com/) Chair of Southern Colorado. Robin, thank you so much for taking the time to be on the show. It’s great to be here. Thanks for the invitation. Tell us a little bit about your business and who you serve. Pikes Peak National Bank is a community bank in Colorado Springs, Colorado. We serve primarily small businesses with revenues under $2 million. We also are a consumer-focus bank, but our niche is in that small business market. That market tends to be underserved by financial institutions and those business owners tend to need more one-on-one with their bankers and expertise because they are starting or growing their businesses. We do work with startups which is unusual for our bank. We are primarily focused in El Paso County, but we are expanding and hope to be moving into other areas of Colorado starting 2020. I was doing a little research and I found out that you’ve been doing this for several years and you started extremely young, apparently. That’s a good thing. I think about the bank relationship and the ideal customer for your bank, what does the ideal customer look like for you over the years? Our ideal customer is a younger business owner who is growing their business and needs to be able to speak with a banker that has expertise in the business. That’s why we focus on annual revenues under $2 million. We have businesses that their revenues are higher than that, but we see the magic in the relationship when they’re under $2 million in revenue. Those are business owners who aren’t going to take a picture of their check and deposit it. They’re not the ones that are going to check online for their balances and download it into QuickBooks. They’re the business owners that need help like, “I have this challenge and I need someone to bounce it off of.” Bankers don’t charge by the hour. I bet we have a lot of expertise because we see businesses in a lot of industries. That’s where we do our best work is with those types of business owners. For the business owner, there’s the relationship that you typically see in the media between a banker and the client. Your founders started to serve the business market. The bank was started on the Westside of Colorado Springs, which we call Old Colorado City. It was started by businessmen that didn’t feel that the Westside of Colorado Springs had financial services supporting. The community bought stock in the bank and these businessmen ran the bank. One of the businessmen was the mayor of Colorado Springs at the time. A family in 1977 bought out all those shareholders and they owned it until January of 2018 when it was sold to another businessman. We were born on the Westside of Colorado Springs, that’s our heart, but we serve all of El Paso County. I am always fascinated by the story. I don’t know if you ran across a lot of women CEOs in the banking community many years ago. Tell me about your path to becoming the CEO of the...

有不少人都以为科罗拉多(Colorado)是因为起源在州境内的科罗拉多河(Colorado River)而得名,其实不然,在1861年科罗拉多成为一个领地的时候,在现在的科罗拉多河其实是叫“大河(Grand River)”,一直到1921年在州境内的“大河”才更名为“科罗拉多河”。您一定好奇,既然和科罗拉多河无关,那我们这里为什么要叫做科罗拉多呢。众所周知科罗拉多是西班牙语里红色的意思,在1859年现今的科泉附近发现了金矿,吸引到不少淘金客到那里落脚,因为旁边的红石盘踞,他们就把这个落脚的地方叫做科罗拉多城(Colorado City),而为了不让这个当年人口仅次于丹佛的淘金重镇屈居人后,科罗拉多城派了两个代表到华府各处去游说,希望把新的领地叫做科罗拉多,皇天不负有心人,在1861年美国国会正式通过设立科罗拉多领地,并且把首府设在科罗拉多城,而到1876年科罗拉多领地成为一州的时候,这里也顺理成章的成为了科罗拉多州,在期间科罗拉多城旁河流的上游和下游的地方都被内战英雄帕尔默将军(General Palmer)开发,并且尔后在1871年分别更名为马兰图泉(Manitou Springs)和科罗拉多泉(Colorado Springs)。而随着科泉的发展科罗拉多城也在1917年和科泉合并,成为了科泉的一部分,当年的科罗拉多城则成为了西科泉或者老科罗拉多城区(Old Colorado City)。下次别人再问您,您也可以侃侃而谈我们为什么叫科罗拉多州了。
