Melisa Rollins, a US rider from Virginia's Blue Ridge TWENTY24, shifts to an individual racing arrangement in 2025, debuting with Liv Racing Collective. Starting on January 24 in McLaren Vale, she'll showcase a new gravel and off-road focus while gaining support from sponsors like SRAM and Kenda. Having won the Leadville Trail 100 MTB, her experience at altitude gives her an edge in these races. The event has deep family roots, with her stepfather having completed it 27 times. Rollins is determined to secure further personal sponsorships while juggling her racing commitments.
Winning Leadville was life-changing, and I have sort of an upper hand having known the course, I've done it so many times.
Embracing the privateer path, she also has support from SRAM, ZIPP, ASSOS, The Feed and Kenda to stay at the top of her game.
