Meet the Mentors of Performance Bicycle Racing

Annie Lux

Posted in

Age: 28
USCF: Category 2
Hometown: Newtown, CT
Current: Raleigh, NC
Profession: Regional market strategist for a large real estate company

Annie got her start in cycling at age 2 by sitting on the back of
her father's bike yelling "wheeee!!". Now in her 7th year of
road racing, Annie Lux is a Category 2 rider and a seasoned
member of the peloton. She has numerous wins in regional
time trials, crits, and omniums and has raced in NRC races
such as the Nature Valley stage race, the Charlotte Criterium,
Hanes Park Classic, Speedweek, and Superweek. Recently, she
has started dabbling in triathlons, and has racked up wins in
2009 in the Triangle Triathlon and Sportsplex Super Sprint...all
thanks to a smoking fast bike leg.

 

Her current cycling goals are to have fun, to race hard, and to use her experience to help develop new riders. She's excited to see more women on bikes, and would be even more excited to see more women out racing.  Oh, and if you couldn't tell, she really likes flames.
