The bike choice of Rachel Joyce
In 2012 Rachel Joyce won the Challenge Roth and after a year away she came back in 2014 to fight for the title aboard this Shimano equipped Cervelo P5 – and when the 2014 Datev Challenge Roth was over, Joyce had earned the runner-up spot behind 2013 Ironman World Champion Mirinda Carfrae.
Rachel recently gave her first Cervelo P5 to her sister and now races on this one.
