There-time Olympic gold medallist Kristin Armstrong will lead her US trade team Twenty16-RideBiker in the team time trial at the World Championships in Doha, Qatar on October 9. Armstrong has also won two world titles in the individual time trial. The team press release noted that this will be Armstrong's final World Championship.

"I look forward to participating in the TTT World Championships with Team TWENTY16 RideBiker," Armstrong said. "After winning the TTT in Tour of California this past-May we are all very motivated to get back on the top step against the world's best. When a team rides as a 'unit' it doesn't matter the course. We kicked off our camp last week in Boise, Idaho, prior to traveling to Doha and we used the camp to continue to improve together," Armstrong said.
