Rinehart got into cycling in college, but truly fell in love with the sport after opening a bicycle shop with her husband. While most athletes are focused on winning, Rinehart doesn’t bog herself down by competition. She participates, first and foremost, for her love of the sport. “A win in my book I guess is just to complete it. I hadn’t been in this level of the sport for a while,” says Rinehart.

Although she was fine being a cycling enthusiast for a long time, eventually, she developed an itch for competition at the highest level. “I just wanted to come back and just do it. I had no expectations,” she said. She put herself on the map by coming sixth place overall, an incredible achievement, especially for someone on the come-up. “To finish top ten was really icing on the cake,” Rinehart said.

While the expectations were low, Rinehart’s challenges can hardly be shrugged off. She faced extreme competitors on extreme riding conditions, like 200 miles on a gravel road or 12,000 feet upward inclines on the Colorado Rockies. However, the athlete pushed herself passed her limits and unlocked new levels.

What’s Next for Rinehart?

The

cyclist has her heart and mind set on the Life Time Grand Prix trials next year. With the way she has been performing as of late, it wouldn’t surprise anyone if she pulled off a few upsets as soon as she features in the event. “To be at the top level, racing with the best out there- the best in the North America. And then to come back and help someone get into the sport for the first time. I really liked the variety and kind of coming back to how people get into the sport,” Rinehart said.Read More: 40-Year-Old Italian Esports Racer Faces Suspension After Positive Anti-Doping Test

While her attitude and approach to making it into the big leagues have been near-perfect until now, it’s time for Rinehart to level up. She has been putting in the hours to make a big impact on the big occasions. Although not concerning herself with the competition has served her well until now, she needs to go forth with a winning mindset. It’s anyone’s guess what’s next to come for Rinehart but smart money’s on a very successful career ahead.
