Amy Dombroski Killed in Cycling Accident



The American cyclist Amy Drombroski was killed in a cycling accident yesterday when she was struck by a truck while training in Belgium, according to her team.

Dombroski, who had been a member of Belgium’s Telenet-Fidea cyclo-cross team since 2012, was killed in Sint-Katelijne-Waver, the team said on its website. Dombroski was motorpacing behind a scooter when the accident occurred. The scooter driver escaped injury, the team said.

The 26-year-old Dombroski was born in Jericho, Vermont, and had lived in Boulder, Colorado since last year. She flew to Belgium two days ago to join her team after competing at the Gran Prix of Gloucester in Massachusetts, where she finished eighth on Sept. 28 and 11th the following day.

Cyclo-cross requires participants to ride on- and off-road courses, sometimes dismounting to carry their bicycles through obstacles.

Dombroski was a three-time under-23 national cyclo-cross champion, according to Velonews. She is survived by her fiance, motocross racer Ryan Rozinski, according to the team.

 
“It is terrible, terrible news,” Corné Lepoeter, president of Telenet’s development team, told VeloNews. “We are all so sad. … We don’t know anything more. We just get the news.”
 
“Amy was a very likeable young woman with lots of ambition,” the team said in a statement. “Manager Hans van Kasteren, YTFCT chairman Corne Lepoeter, team leader Kris Wouters, all riders, and staff … offer the family of Amy their sincere feelings of compassion.”
 

“This is the second time something like that happens to us. When Tim Pauwels, brother of Kevin, died, he died in my arms. And now this. Amy was a wonderful girl, a good rider,” he said. “Tuesday at the team presentation I noticed her optimism for the coming winter. We had a lot of confidence in her.”
