Willow Rockwell beendet im Alter von 34 Jahren ihre Profi Karriere. Die Trek Pilotin hatte für dieses Jahr eigentlich ihren Wiedereinstig in den Rennzirkus geplant, nachdem sie 2011 Mutter geworden war. 2009 und 2010 hatte sie bei den Weltmeisterschaften jeweils die Bronzemedaille geholt.
“After much soul searching, and many tears, I have decided to end my mountain bike racing career, I committed to racing for 2012 before having my child. There was no way I could have predicted the changes that have occurred within me. Thank you for your support during this time of intense decision and transformation. I especially thank my Team Manager Martin Whiteley and my team, Trek World Racing, for understanding that sometimes life has other plans. Enjoy every moment on the bicycle, for every moment adds up to create your life!”
