After winning the first Zwift Academy pro contract with Canyon//SRAM racing last year, Leah Thorvilson is set to stay with the team for 2018 with even more drive and ambition than before.

After her first year as an elite racer, Leah built up 30 race days which she hopes to improve on next year.

“Talk about being thrown in at the deep end! It’s been an incredible journey and a totally surreal experience” – Leah Thorvilson

In 2018, Thorvilson will be aiming to help the team achieve its race day goals as much as possible. “Without question that’s my main aim. Personally, I’d also like to take some podiums on the Belgium and Dutch national level races if I race them again next year, and to have a good performance in the time trial and road race at US nationals.”
