BLDG Active, a leader in bringing cutting-edge medical technologies to active outdoor athletes, announced the addition of pro Multi-World Champ Brian Lopes to its ambassador team.

Whether riding single track or pavement, cyclists battle chaffing, saddle sores, scrapes and sunburns daily and in the case of a crash, road rash and open wounds. Cleaning and treating these skin irritations quickly and properly can mean the difference between days or weeks of healing. BLDG’s Active Skin Repair products offer scientifically advanced, all-natural technologies that work to disinfect and promote healing of skin irritations and wounds. Instead of bulky, toxic first aid products, riders like Lopes now have a simple 3oz natural solution right in their bike bags. Active Skin Repair’s clinically proven regenerative technology kills 99.9% of bacteria without harsh chemicals or antibiotics and helps reduce inflammation and speed the body’s natural recovery process.

“Scrapes and cuts from bush whacking or a crash here and there, are part of riding; how quickly they heal is key in getting back into the fun,” Lopes said. “Active Skin Repair goes on any scrapes or cuts as soon as I come off my bike and I’ve noticed a huge difference in healing time.”

Lopes has had an unprecedented 20+ year career as a professional cyclist, having been labeled “Undisputedly the best all-around world class cycling athlete,” by USA Today. Lopes originally raced BMX before channeling his efforts to mountain biking, where he went on to win nine National Championships and four World Championship titles. Lopes rides his bike daily in his hometown of Laguna Beach, CA where he continues to share his passion for the sport.

“Lopes is an incredible addition to our team,” said Justin Gardner, co-founder and CEO of BLDG Active. “Having spent the majority of his life on a bike, he knows the realities of having torn up legs and saddle issues and what that can translate to if left untreated. Brian is an advocate for keeping riders healthy and on their bikes, and BLDG Active plays a big role in that.”
