Wiktoria Pikulik will ride for Human Powered Health from 2024. The 25-year-old Polish woman thus becomes a teammate of her one-year older sister Daria Pikulik. The latter has extended her contract with the American team by one year.
"It is everyone's dream to be part of a WorldTour team," says Wiktoria on the Human Powered Health website. "My parents are so proud that we will ride together for the same team and that this is in the WorldTour. We have been racing and training since day one of our careers, so I am really looking forward to competing in the biggest races with her."
Wiktoria became Polish road champion in 2022. Last season, a ninth place in the Veenendaal – Veenendaal Classic (1.1) was her most striking result. In the past she has mainly been used as a sprint starter. She is also active on the track, just like Daria. The two rode the pair race together at the Olympic Games in Tokyo and finished sixth.
On the road, Daria made her breakthrough in 2023, her first season for Human Powered Health. She won six competitions, two of which were at the highest level. Remarkable: she won both the first and last races of the Women's WorldTour with the opening stage in the Santos Tour Down Under and the Tour of Guangxi. "I want to shout how happy I am, I am so happy that I am staying," Daria exults. "This year was very good for us and I hope next year can be even better."

- Starting all 3 vs finishing all 3, which makes what Sepp Kuss did in 2023 very impressive.
Front24209-01-2026 - It'd be good to see these back on the Classics 👍
leedorney09-01-2026 - it will be interesting to see his results when he steps into the bigger races. 19 wins, but so many in the fall in mid level races. still the mid races need to be won to step up to the biggies.mij09-01-2026
- Looks like his poor health just stomped on the rear mech of his cycling career.Onepiece09-01-2026
- she is so good. even her results from 2025, which were “bad”, would be a career year for most riders. and consider at MSR, for example, her teammate won - perhaps Lotte could have won it. wishing her the best for 2026!mij09-01-2026

- Not sure you can say that someone as talented and successful as him has had bad luck, but between coming along right after the two titans and now this, his is a career cut short. Perhaps he can transition to a different role in the sport, but in any case I wish him well.MidnightRider08-01-2026
- I doubt it. This blows a hole in their ranks.mobk08-01-2026
- For a while there, Eli was the best of the rest in cyclocross behind Mathieu and Wout. It must be tough to be forced to retire early due to medical issues, but good health trumps everything else. I wish him the best in his future endeavors.
