Gravel Power Rankings 2019: 4th place

pure gravel power rankings 2019 #04

Our 4th place athletes are Peter Stetina and Sarah Max


Peter Stetina

Peter Stetina

We believe Peter has the distinction of being the first rider to walk away from the WorldTour to race gravel professionally full-time. (As opposed to “retiring” and then riding a few gravel races on the side.) Read about that here on Velonews. And here on CX Magazine. Welcome to our dirty little world Peter. 

In 2019 Peter won the Belgian Waffle Ride, and placed second in Kansas. He came soooo close to being the first rider to pull off the BWR-DK double. We can’t wait to see what he does in 2020.
