Get to know the PCC Outreach Coordinator!

Who are you?

My name is Alicja Stoppel and I'm a sophomore majoring in Nuclear Engineering. I was born in Poland, but I grew up in Avon, IN. Other than cycling, I enjoy running, going on road trips, going to country concerts, and binge-watching movies/TV shows

Why bikes?

I love cycling because it has taken me to see so many beautiful places while also giving me an outlet from school and allowing me to make goals that I can push myself for. Also, the cycling community is amazing and I've met so many cool people through it.

Favorite route

My favorite route is Independence, but my dream ride would be any ride in Mallorca, aka the cycling paradise.

Favorite bike

Gotta go with any bike from the best bike brand out there, Canyon.

Best ride snack

Either Cliff Bars or Gu Gels.

Favorite PCC memory

My favorite memories are from the entire road race season this past spring! From staying at a sketchy 1 star hotel to seeing so many amazing individual results and wins at Lindenwood.

Fun fact??

For domestic races, I ride for Upland Brewing p/b Gray Goat!
