Bio
Peter Stetina hails from the cycling rich culture of Boulder, Colorado. Nestled at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, it has been the perfect backdrop to help Peter become a top talent in the next generation of cycling stars. He is a natural climber who made huge gains in his Time Trialing abilities last season to become what many have touted as a future Tour de France contender. Riding under the argyle-clad Garmin Team, he is a two-time U23 Time Trial National Champion, and former Road Race champion. He has represented the USA at three World Championships and was 6th in the U23 Time Trial Worlds in 2008. In 2009 he had a breakout season and gained notoriety by placing 2nd to current Tour contenders Levi Leipheimer and Oscar Sevilla on various mountaintop finishes throughout the USA.
