Five time Cyclocross National Champion, Paralympic Medalist, World Record Holder, World Championship Medalist, World Cup Winner... Wins Road races, Track races, 'Cross races, MTB races... Over the past decade, Katie Compton has been one of (if not THE) fastest female bike racers on the planet. So how on Earth does she find herself without a sponsor? Well, it's not as easy as you may think...

Awesome interview Colt! I hope Katie and Sho-Air works out... They are a shipping company, no? Maybe they could ship her bikes around for free instead of flying with them? Just a thought..

I wish more racers would be honest like this. I think if more riders spoke openly about their sponsorship it would only create more awareness and more competition amongst the industry. Competition between companies means better deals for the riders... Makes sense why the companies triy to keep contract details hush hush...

Katie is awesome. It is so refreshing to hear a racer talk honestly about sponsorship, equipment and costs. She is the best and the brightest racer of her generation.

Plus, Colt you are asking the good questions.
