Los Angeles native Sean Quinn grew up watching the Tour de France with his mom and dad. Every morning in July, he would wake up early to watch the day’s stage. Soon, he was racing up California climbs and imagining they were the Alps. He progressed through the junior and U23 ranks, shining in stage races and hilly classics.
In 2024, the Californian won the US national championship in a thrilling reduced sprint finale. Months later, he made his Tour de France debut where he was a vital teammate and contributed to the squad’s successful campaign.
A strong climber who can hold his own in the peloton with a fast finishing kick, he got his first pro win in 2023, when he took the prize on stage two of Coppi e Bartali. Sean trains hard, but likes to have fun too. He is a DJ and will always sprint for town signs.
