| Introduction | Maddie started riding bikes about 10 years ago when her friend, Natalia, gave her an old junker road bike. Finishing her first century ride a year later, she knew she was hooked! A few years later, she transitioned to racing. For two years she raced in the XTERRA off-road triathlon point series, placing 2nd in the Northeast in her division both years, qualifying and racing at the USA Championships in Lake Tahoe. Having finally admitted that she does not like swimming and never will, she switched to racing road, XC mountain and finally cyclocross! This year she has a full slate scheduled in all three disciplines. Having made it to Cat 1 XC, she is hoping to qualify and race at nationals to further her goal of going pro some day. In the meantime, she got herself a USAC coaching license and Cyclops Power Certification to stay on top of how to train. When she is off her bike (which isn't often), Maddie loves rock climbing, ice hockey, snowshoe racing and anything to do with horses (especially her thoroughbred, Red)! |
