Racer, role model, inspiration, legend, there are many words that can be used to describe our new Enduro World Series 2014 Champion Tracy Moseley. Tracy has been at the top end of the sport ever since it began, and has done more for the promotion of womens racing than any other. Humble and approachable, Tracy has inspired a generation of young riders and her unrelenting speed and skill has taken her again to the top spot for 2014 after a fierce battle with Anne Caro. We caught up with Tracy in Finale to check out her victorious Trek Remedy 9.8. We have a full interview coming soon.
