An Olympic Journey to Rio for a Rodon Family Member

American Spirit


“If you want to achieve your dreams you have to believe in yourself and work hard every day to achieve them. If it were easy, everyone would do it”, Matt Baranoski, Olympic Cyclist

Recently I had the honor of interviewing Matt Baranoski, a world class cyclist named to the U.S. Olympic track cycling team in March and the son of Mike Baranoski, a Design Engineer at The Rodon Group. With the Summer Games in Rio coming up in just a few months, I’m grateful that Matt was able to take some time out of his busy schedule to speak to me. You can read our conversation below.

How and when did you get started in cycling?

We raced around the velodrome cycling track in Trexlertown, PA where they had free classes. I’ve been racing there ever since and the now “Valley Preferred Cycling Center” is my home away from home. I got my start on the track at 6 and at 12 I competed in my first national race and becoming the Junior National Champion. At that point, I decided to focus on cycling. I still train there and have the opportunity to meet with the younger cyclists while I’m there.

A Day of Service, A Lesson in Leadership

American Spirit

A day of service is a fitting tribute to one of the most influential people of the 20th century, Dr. Martin Luther King.  Dr. King’s legacy will surely live on for centuries to come.  He showed the world how to lead by example and with tremendous grace.

The Greater Philadelphia region is home to the largest King Day event in the nation.  This 21st celebration will include community clean-up projects, recreation center restorations, clothing drives, food donation packing and distribution, a job fair and workshop opportunities.  The city’s cultural and historical institutions are planning special discounted rates along with tributes to Dr. King.
