Come back Kirstin Armstrong
Posted by: DZI (25 October 2010 14:36)

When Kirstin Armstrong decided to quit racing at the end of 2009, it now seems that cycling still works like a magnet on the American. Only days after giving birth to a newborn son (Lucas William) she hinted at actively competing at the 2012 Olympic Games.

All doubt has been cast aside now: Armstrong has resumed training again and will start her campaign with the Peanut Butter & Co.TWENTY12-team in 2011. She's made clear that the 2011 and 2012 season will be used to get ready for another shot at Olympic Gold at the Games. She has already got one Olympic Gold under her belt from the Beijing Olympics in 2008, besides two World time trial titles.

The most successful American female rider to date is clear about her ambition to return to cycling: "I love cycling and I love competing." As to her motives for her return: "I stopped racing after the 2009 World Championships not because I was burned out, but because my husband and I wanted to start a family. I told myself from the beginning if everything went smoothly with the birth of our son I would consider racing again."
Making the step to Peanut Butter & Co. Team TWENTY12 is no surprise, Armstrong co-owns the team for which she'll be riding from 2011.
