About Us

Our story started in Monroe, Louisiana - where my now wife and I met and connected over Jesus & our love of the outdoors. We married, moved into our 1978 Airstream and travelled all over the US to mountain bike, kayak and explore together. We had 2 kiddos along the way.

We are passionate about spending time outside and connecting with nature, and raising our kids to love the outdoors. In 2024 we decided to turn our passion into a business - and Ride the Wild was born.

So, we want to welcome you. We are super excited that you are here. At Ride the Wild, we specialize in sporting goods & outdoor gear - we carry everything from electric bikes, kayaks, & paddleboards - to camping supplies & more! Our Mission is to Get You Outside and to Equip You with High Performance Gear for Unforgettable Experiences.

We have something for everyone - from beginners to seasoned athletes, and we are committed to taking care of every single customer. We value our customers and only want to provide them with the best gear - which is why we only partner with brands with a U.S. presence. We are here every step of the way, from choosing what products are right for you, to making sure your products are delivered, and that those products meet your expectations. We offer 30 day returns for most items, and will help you resolve issues promptly if anything arrives damaged.
