01 / THE PACK

BIKES BRING US TOGETHER.
GOOD TIMES KEEP US CLOSE.

We are PANDAS MTB COZUMEL. We love getting out on our bikes, losing ourselves in the jungle for a while and coming back with a good story to tell.

There's always someone who says “let's take it easy” before kicking up a cloud of dust… and someone asking how much farther from the very first trail.

That's who we are. That's how we ride.

MEET THE PANDAS

THE RIDERS BEHIND
THE PACK.

PANDAS MTB COZUMEL

JARAMILLO

“El Jaraloco”

SPECIALTY: FLYING

The panda who turns every jump into a show. He brings adventure, laughs and a love of riding with the pack to every trail.

Our very own Papantla flyer on two wheels!

PANDAS MTB COZUMEL

DANIEL

“Forever Young”

PASSION: BIKE PARKS

Some pandas count miles; Daniel counts the reasons to ride again. They call him “Forever Young” because whenever a bike park is on the agenda, the excitement starts all over again: a new corner to discover, a line to improve and a thousand reasons to smile under his helmet.

His story is written in dirt, wheels and that phrase every panda knows: “One more lap!” For him, youth is an attitude, and adventure is better with the pack. Every ride, Daniel reminds us that the spark never fades as long as we keep wanting to pedal.

A young spirit never retires: it heads to the bike park!

CARLOS

“El Chemo”

A SKUNK WITH A PANDA SOUL

Every pack has an undercover member, but ours earned his place through sheer charm. Carlos, “El Chemo”, wears a skunk on his jersey and carries a panda in his heart. His secret mission: turn any ride into a great story and make even the most exhausted panda find a reason to laugh.

He's not exactly undercover: with that personality, going unnoticed is impossible. Through trails, dust and good times, El Chemo stands for friendship that rides beyond team badges. Here, you earn your place by sharing the road, and this skunk has a place of his own in the pack.

Undercover member spotted! Staying for excessive charisma.

GUSTAVO

“El Gus”

SPECIALTY: SWITCHING ON COME RACE DAY

There's a mystery in the pack that even GPS can't solve: when does El Gus train? Nobody sees it, nobody knows… but announce a race and there's Gustavo, helmet on, bike ready, with the kind of confidence the early risers can only dream of.

His training plan is secret; so secret we suspect even he doesn't know it. But he's always ready to pull on the jersey and share an adventure with the Pandas. Between jokes, dirt and pedals, El Gus puts his own stamp on every outing: he may miss training, but he's ready for the laughs and the starting line!

Training unconfirmed. Race-day attendance guaranteed!

Raúl, El Rulo, cycling along a rocky jungle trail

PANDAS MTB COZUMEL

RAÚL

“El Rulo”

SPECIALTY: HIS OWN BIGGEST FAN AND THE FIRST TO WANT TO GO HOME

Every team has someone who's convinced he's the star… and in our pack that's Raúl, “El Rulo”. He arrived in MTB like he was walking into an event held in his honor: a champion's swagger, a legend's confidence and the certainty everyone had been waiting for him. He doesn't need cheers: he applauds himself, motivates himself and, if a camera appears, assumes the photo is for him.

He lives up to his nickname because, in his view, the world revolves around him. He hits the trail with a champion's confidence, a cover-star pose and the certainty everyone was waiting for his entrance. But the moment the ride ends, he switches modes: drops the pose, checks his watch and asks his classic question: “Are we leaving yet?” While the pack keeps chatting, El Rulo is already calculating the fastest route home.

First in the photo and first to ask: “Are we leaving yet?”!

OUR TRAILS, TRACKS AND FAVORITE SPOTS

THIS IS WHERE WE RIDE:
THE PACK.

Through jungle tunnels, dirt tracks and Cozumel's blues, we collect miles and stories. There's always someone saying “let's take it easy”, asking how much farther or requesting one more photo. This is how we experience our trails: with sweat, laughs and a pack that rides together.

Our storyIt all started with a bet. Discover how the pack began.Our storyRead our storyClose section

02 / OUR STORY

IT ALL STARTED
WITH A
BET.

SMALL PACK. WILD SPIRIT.

To think the Pandas story began with a bet…

That was the beginning of PANDAS MTB COZUMEL. Today, our story keeps unfolding on two wheels, along the island's trails and through our love of riding with the pack.

We recognize ourselves in the dust, the effort and the laughs. In the rider who says “let's take it easy”, the one asking us to wait and the hand offered when it's needed. Every panda brings something of their own to make the ride worthwhile.

The bet is part of our beginnings. What brings us together today is friendship, our love of cycling and this island we call home. You don't need a big group to share a great adventure.

Here we ride…
and no panda gets left behind.

The story continues. See you on the next trail.
