Dakota Newman

Dakota grew up in the Pacific Northwest, where his love for the outdoors was shaped by rugged trails and endless adventure. When he’s not hiking, you’ll find him riding dirt bikes with friends, pushing limits and embracing every challenge the trail throws his way. Known for his mental toughness and physical endurance, Dakota naturally steps into a mentorship role, sharing his deep knowledge of riding techniques and trail skills to help others build confidence and overcome obstacles.

What truly sets him apart is his mechanical expertise. As a skilled mechanic, Dakota enjoys helping fellow riders fine-tune their bikes, often sharing practical insights that improve performance and precision. For him, riding isn’t just about the thrill — it’s about continuous improvement, both on and off the bike.

Dakota discovered Ride Loud after joining a group of friends for a ride and immediately felt aligned with the brand’s vision and community-driven spirit. The app quickly became a valuable tool, allowing him to easily organize friend groups for rides so no one gets left out.

The Discussion feature keeps everyone connected between adventures, and the Marketplace has become his go-to for buying and selling gear with ease. For Dakota, Ride Loud simply makes sense to be an ambassador — it supports the way he rides, connects, and builds community.
