Ready to start our Team’s Mission Part 5, the ride towards the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles, USA. We are very pleased to welcome Carla Hahn (Germany, born June 20, 2005) as our new
U23 rider, silver medalist at the European XCO U23 Championships in 2024.
Carla is a very talented mountain biker with some great achievements already.
Her love for nature, and her love for mountain biking – ‘freedom’ to Carla -, are reasons
why she will fit perfectly in our 2025 Team Line Up, next to her achievements so far.
Bart Brentjens, Team Director of ‘KMC Ridley Mountainbike Racing Team’:
“We are very happy to welcome Carla to the team. Carla is a very talented rider, with a
lot of ambition and focus. Her biggest wish is to become ‘Olympic Champion’ and she is
definitely not afraid to stand up for her dream. I like that attitude.
Carla has been riding since she was 4 years old! You can see this in her way of riding. She
is very technical and she is a fast starter and sprinter. She is very motivated and also part
of the German army, she is in a special German program for athletes. This shows her
‘hardworking attitude’ and her discipline.
I think Carla has everything to become one of the best female mountain bikers in the
world, and we are happy to start Mission Part 5 together with Carla, as one of our
youngest team riders with a lot of potential.”
Carla Hahn, International U23 Women rider:
“Super excited to be a part of the KMC Ridley MTB Racing Team. I believe they will give
me the support to reach the next steps on my way to the top. I am really looking forward
to work, travel, and train together with the team!”
