Looking to relieve stress and maintain a healthy exercise routine? Join us for stress-free, easy, 30-minute group cycling rides on Zwift! Our Zwift rides will be lead by DVEN Founder, Robert Hess, and will take you on a virtual scenic route. As you ride, you’ll be able to chat with fellow veterans and #StopPTSD advocates, while getting a healthy dose of exercise!
Exercise is one of the best ways to prevent disease, and a feeling of community can greatly mitigate the stress associated with daily life. If you are familiar with Zwift and want to attend a Stress Buster ride, add “Robert Hess” on Zwift and he’ll send you an invitation to the Zwift meetup(s) of your choice. Use the blue contact form on this page (located on the bottom right) to RSVP with which ride(s) you would like to attend. Please be sure to log-into Zwift and go to the meet-up location, at least five minutes before the meet-up start time.
Our Stress Buster Zwift Rides are Mondays & Wednesdays from 4:30pm to 5:00pm, Fridays from 6:00am – 6:30am, and Saturdays from 7:30am – 8:00am. If you are unfamiliar with Zwift, looking to learn more about Zwift, or want to see what equipment you need for Zwift – check out our “Beating PTSD with Zwift” start-up guide! We’ve researched the most efficient and cost-effective ways to get anyone started on Zwift.
We hope to see you virtually for a Stress Buster Zwift Ride soon! Be well. Stay safe!

How are we going to do it?
Using the power of the Digital Age and the ZOOM interface, there will be 25 minute speed networking rounds per group and then virtually rotate to the next room after the 10 minute intermission. The breakout rooms will be OPEN NETWORKING rooms and completely RANDOMIZED for the entire event.
Each room will begin with introductions of your 30-second elevator speech. Come prepared and dressed appropriately for a networking event. Business Casual is Appropriate.
Contact a VETS2INDUSTRY volunteer if you need advice on what to wear and we will assist.
Email events@vets2industry.org and make sure your spam filter is OFF for this email address or you will miss the crucial Post-survey.
The first 30-minutes will include welcome address by a Brian Arrington, Intro of Keynote Speaker, and Rules of Engagement. Then the start of the breakout groups.
Agenda (All Times EASTERN):
2pm- 2:07pm: Welcome by VETS2INDUSTRY Founder /President Brian Arrington
2:07-2:17pm: Keynote
2:17-2:27pm: Open Q & A With Keynote Speaker

2:30pm-6:15pm: ***Networking*** (see why 4-hours long, below)
6:15pm-7pm: Closing comments/ Open Q & A by Brian Arrington
(Based on previous event Post survey, attendees wanted longer breakout rooms, enjoyed the 7-8 person breakout groups, randomization, longer group sessions of 25-minutes, longer intermission from 5-minute so we went to 10-minute intermission rounds this time 25/10 rounds)
***The 5-hour event length is not intended for people to stay 5 hours. People can stay as long as they want, leave when they want, and come back as desired as long as they have the password in the invite that will be emailed prior to the event from Eventbrite with the link***
Facilitators in the rooms are only there as guides if conversations dry up or guests need help or need private rooms. This is not a training course or educational seminar. This is a networking event to mingle. Be prepared to talk about yourselves, your goals, ambitions, and businesses.
