Paola Pezzo has retired from from Pro Mountain Biking

In a brief interview with editor Rob Jones, as he headed out onto the course for the time trail, Paola Pezzo admitted that she has retired from the Pro circuit. "After 24 years of racing, I want to spend time with my family. I'm tired."

She says she will do some endurance and distance events as well as some appearances for her sponsors like Gary Fisher. She is at Napa today (in her'trademark' gold suit) signing autographs and has been attending social events all week.
