From great athletes and students, great coaches can emerge.

At Waite Endurance, we’ve had the privilege of working with dozens of junior riders over the years—many of whom have now risen to elite levels of the sport. Among them, those who have absorbed our training methods over multiple seasons and combined that foundation with their own racing experiences are now stepping into coaching roles themselves. We’re proud to be fostering the next generation of endurance cycling coaches.

Sofia was one of the original seven founding riders of the team in 2019, joining at just sixteen years old. Her relentless dedication and passion for learning have propelled her to achieve what many young cyclists only dream of: National Championship titles, selection to the National Team, multiple World Championship appearances, a World Cup podium, and two seasons racing with a European World Cup team. Now, Sofia is excited to give back—sharing her journey, insights, and experience with the next generation of riders following in her footsteps.

Toby started with WE in 2020, during the second season of the WE Development program, as a first-year Junior UCI racer.
Six years later, after earning a top-15 finish at a U23 World Cup, spending two seasons on the U.S. National Team, and gaining extensive UCI racing experience, he’s now competing at the elite level. Toby’s deep passion for training and his drive to continually improve are exactly what will make him an exceptional coach for the next generation of riders.

Ethan also joined the WE Development program in 2020 as a first-year Junior UCI racer.
Six years later, after exploring a range of disciplines—XCO, marathon, gravel, and road racing—and graduating from college, he has accumulated a wealth of knowledge across the cycling spectrum. Now, as a coach, Ethan is eager to share that experience with athletes, helping them navigate their own journeys and reach new heights in their cycling careers.

Adam joined the WE Development program at 18, starting out as an XCO racer.
He quickly embraced the training process, demonstrating a strong eagerness to learn and asking insightful questions. After his first season as a U23 racer, the allure of the Leadville 100 proved irresistible, and he dove headfirst into long-distance racing. His passion for cracking the endurance code, combined with his drive to continually improve, makes him an invaluable asset to any rider under his coaching guidance.
