After back-to-back World Championship titles in Juniors, Erice is stepping into the elite downhill ranks with serious momentum—and no plans to slow down.
Her raw talent, fearless speed, and calm under pressure have already made waves, and 2025 is shaping up to be her breakout year. Erice joins Norco Race Division after connecting with team manager Alan Milway during the 2024 season, and says the support, camaraderie, and race-ready setup have given her the confidence to push even harder. She thrives on the feeling of full-speed focus: “The faster I go, the more peaceful I feel.” With her unmatched drive and natural poise, Erice is ready to make a statement in her first year as an elite. Backed by a team that believes in her and the experience to handle the heat, she’s on track to become one of the most exciting young riders on the World Cup circuit.
