Day two, pitch three peloton turned cycling into a $1.5 billion business.
Strava did the same thing for running.
And one of the most successful startups to appear on our show is fight camp.
They made a huge business out of a tech enabled punching bag on today's show, the peloton for horses.
Well, for equestrians, actually.
But one of these sports is not like the others.
To get started with horseback riding, you have to buy a horse, get a coach and a stable.
But running, on the other hand, is free.
Just about anyone can go outside and run if they want to.
So the equestrian market, it's way smaller, but it's full of passionate riders.
Is passion enough to make horseback riding the next billion dollar business?
Will the VC's see their next shiny unicorn, or will they just see a horse?
I'm Josh Muccio.
