Backblaze Is Faster Than…

Meet the Backblaze Peloton.
From Wikipedia:

The peloton travels as an integrated unit, like birds flying in formation, each rider making slight adjustments in response to the riders around him or her…

I would say we started a Backblaze biking group because of the inherent efficiency, teamwork, and performance of a well-executed peloton; that this is both a way to develop our team and to demonstrate its excellence; that this was perfectly timed to coincide with Backblaze 2.0: The Performance Release

But, realistically, it’s just fun.

Want one of these fancy Backblaze bike jerseys?
In the comments below, on our Facebook page, or on Twitter simply finish the sentence:

“Backblaze is faster than…”

For example:

  • Backblaze is faster than a cheetah jumping off a rocket ship.
  • Backblaze is faster than a spinning hard drive.
  • Backblaze is faster than a DeLorean hitting 88 mph.

We’ll pick our favorite and send you a jersey!
