A New American Town - Bentonville, Arkansas Team USA Paracyclist Trains for Nationals in Bentonville
We sit down with paracyclist Jason Macomb as he readies himself for the 2026 USA Paracycling Road National Championships in Bentonville, where the time trial and road race decide who gets to wear the stars and stripes all year, including on the international stage. We get specific about preparation. Jason walks me through a training week, from long zone 2 endurance rides to full-gas time trial efforts, plus the less-visible work like recovery and nutrition.
Then we zoom out to what makes paracycling so compelling. Jason breaks down paracycling classifications, the different bikes and a major misconception: much of this adaptive cycling equipment isn’t off the shelf. It often takes custom engineering, smart adaptations, and constant experimentation. He also shares a proud career moment from the Pan Am Games and tells fans exactly how to spot him on course.
