"Sprinting phenom Riley Pickrell showed up without a bike. A loaner got lost in transit so he ended up borrowing another last minute onsite… and he won three stages. Riley is hyper, hilarious, races on the road and track, and he paints frames with an 80s aesthetic in his spare time."
At this moment in history there a growing trend amongst young North American racers that achieve their goals through a combination of DIY entrepreneurial spirit, social media engagement and old-fashioned community support. This trend points to the return of more interesting characters to the sport, and a movement away from team-based uniformity… and it might add a lot of excitement to bike racing in general.
