About Petro Cycles

Hi, I’m Brian “Petro” Petrosky, founder of Petro Cycles.

Petro Cycles was born from the belief that forward motion—on the bike and in life—can carry us through even the hardest chapters. After surviving throat cancer and rebuilding my life through recovery, I discovered endurance cycling as both a path forward and a way to share hope with others facing adversity.

Our Mission

Petro Cycles is a cycling-driven mission focused on cancer survivorship, mental wellness, recovery, and resilience. Through cycling, storytelling, and community, we promote hope, healing, and life beyond adversity.

Why Petro Cycles Exists

Through long-distance rides, honest storytelling, and community engagement, Petro Cycles aims to show that perseverance, faith, and resilience are possible even after life’s darkest moments.

The motto “Recovery in Motion” reflects the belief that healing and growth happen by continuing to move forward with purpose—one mile, one day, and one challenge at a time.

Petro Cycles is more than a cycling project. It is a commitment to encouraging others to keep moving forward, regardless of the obstacles they face.

Whether you are a cancer survivor, someone navigating mental health challenges, a person in recovery, or simply someone who believes in resilience and personal growth, you are welcome here.

Together, we ride forward.
