The USA Women’s national mountain bike team is absolutely stacked with talent. This week on we hear from Kristi who had the chance to sit down with two of its up and coming stars while visiting Bentonville this fall. Madigan (Maddie) Munro is a ski racer turned mountain bike phenom from Boulder, CO. She is currently signed with Trek Factory racing and will be making the jump from U23 to Elite on the World Cup circuit in 2025. Sofia Waite, of Golden, CO started her athletic career as a runner but quickly found her way to mountain biking through her local NICA program. Growing up racing against Maddie, Sofia has now signed with BH Coloma and is also racing as a U23 on the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup. The pair talks about the supportive dynamic throughout all of the women on the mountain bike national team, and how they are also becoming role models for the next generation of USA mountain bike athletes. They also fill us in on what life on the world cup circuit is like as they travel the world to race their bikes.
