Torbjorn Roed followed his brother to the U.S. from Norway to go to school at Colorado Mesa University - and pursue, not just a degree, but also a career in cycling. While in college he landed a spot on one of the top amateur teams in the U.S. Above and Beyond Cancer - or ABC. It was this summer of 2023, while riding with ABC that he not only wore the leaders jersey at the Tour of the Gila, but also won the Kansas Belgian Waffle Ride and then took on the 35 pros in the Lifetime Grand Prix and won the final Lifetime GP event in Bentonville - the Big Sugar gravel race in October! He’s looking forward to some time off now, but also to next year as he’s landed a spot on one of the top domestic professional teams Project Echelon!
