WPL is excited to introduce you to our newest team rider, Karsten Madsen. Karsten is starting to make a name for himself around Whistler and the Sea to Sky community and there's no question as to why... he's an absolute BEAST on his bike! With years of experience as a professional triathlete, Karsten has now turned his focus to riding bikes competing in several events from gravel to xc. Aside from racing, you'll often catch Karsten training on the local trails, coaching the youth, or if you're lucky enough maybe doing another one of his gnarly Everesting challenges.

From Gravel to XC, Karsten is no stranger to being between the tape.

While off the bike, Karsten enjoys spending time in nature which is why he's partnered with organizations such as Protect Our Winters Canada (POW) to turn his outdoor passions into being an effective advocate for climate conservation. We realized from an early stage that our mission lined up directly with Karsten's and we could not be more stoked to welcome him to our team and helping shape a greener future for mountain bikers.
