FRISCO, TEXAS – Rita Kacala of Caledonia has again distinguished herself as one of the fastest women in the world on a bike.
Kacala, 55, set an unofficial world record with her time of 39.856 seconds in the 55-59 women’s 500-meter cycling event at the USA Cycling Masters Track National Championships on Sunday in Frisco, Texas.
“It’s fun to break the women’s record,” said Kacala, who races for RPM/Hayes Brake. “Someone else will break it next, maybe me again.”
The world record, which is expected to become official in two to four weeks after drug tests results, comes on the heels of Kacala’s first national championship last year when she set a world record in the 50-54 women’s 500-meter event with her time of 39.357 seconds. She said that still stands.
