Trek has purchased and will manage the overall series in an effort to build on the series' growth.
Waterloo, WI – February 15, 2022 – Trek Bicycle has purchased Wisconsin Off Road Series (WORS) and is gearing up for an action-packed 2022 season. With Don Edberg's recent retirement, Trek has stepped in to manage the series and build on its growth.
"We believe that WORS and Don's endless work on the series has substantially helped grow the mountain bike community in the Midwest," said Eric Bjorling, Trek's Director of Brand. "We are deeply invested in seeing that growth continue."
Since 1992, Don Edberg has developed WORS to be the welcoming, fun, and competitive mountain biking experience it is today. Thanks to Don's work, WORS has become America's largest state mountain bike racing series, with a solid foundation for future growth of mountain biking in Wisconsin.
The series will feature a similar format to previous seasons, with independent race owners working alongside overall series leadership. Trek plans to appoint a new race director and open race registration on March 3rd.
