Jane Eickhoff - Inducted 2003

Jane Eickhoff, aka “the Pocket Rocket,” won a junior world titles in the match sprint and the pursuit in her first year of competition in T-Town. Before she retired, she owned the only world record ever set at this Velodrome. Eickhoff helped raise the bar for women’s performances in Trexlertown. Her sea-level world record in the women’s kilometer in 1991 furthered the reputation of the track, which by then was world renowned as “T-town.” A California native, she blossomed into one of the top women’s international cyclists in U.S. history. Her style and effort made her an instant fan favorite here, but her smile and her sincerity made her seem like the girl next door.
