Peter Stetina, Another World Tour Pro Road Racer, Retires to Race GRAVEL!

11/7/2019

 
Stetina retires to race gravel races
Just like Ted King did a year ago, another world class road racer has officially retired to move exclusively to Gravel Racing. Why? Because man, the GRAVELUTION! That said, it is an interesting trend that we're seeing. Ted King was a staple in road racing for years. Then, one day, he retired and now rides really awesome gravel races around the world. He even created his own gravel race.

Pete Stetina seems to be following suit. In various interviews this week, he simply said that gravel races excite him more than road races.

"I still love road racing and I would have really liked to have blended both, but it wasn't feasible," he said. "Most WorldTour team managers are not open to that. So I am officially striking out on my own in a privateer venture."

Good on you, Pete. We hope you nail it.
