Logan Owen

“In cyclocross, I focused only myself – my training, my racing, my results. In the WorldTour, my mindset changed completely. All my efforts go into helping my team leader. When I think about myself, it’s in a ‘what can I do to set him up for the finishes?’ kind of way.”

Logan became the first American to win the U23 Liège-Bastogne-Liège in 2017. A 10-time cyclocross national champion, Logan gave up full-time ‘cross racing in 2016 to pursue his WorldTour dreams.

Thanks to the EF Education-NIPPO’s alternative race program, Logan was able to return to his roots and dabble in ‘cross again during the 2019-2010 season.

Logan started racing BMX as a five-year-old and has the bike handling skills that accompany a nearly 20 year multi-discipline approach.

While Logan’s first two years on the team were all about acclimation and education, Logan feels ready to take on a new challenge. He hopes to learn the ropes of the road captain role from teammates Mitch Docker, and Sebastian Langeveld and eventually serve as a team leader on the road.
