Trent became a member of the US Olympic Training Center residency program in Colorado Springs, CO in 2010 so he could train full-time.

= 2016
=Aaron Trent ventured into the wilderness on his bike planning on putting in an easy 1006.37 miles up the Appalachian Trail. His plans changed when his bike took a wild turn into bear country and he decided to pick a fight with Smokey himself. Aaron won the fight Leonardo style but not without losing his right pinky toe. He is still able to cycle but will have to live with the knowledge of knowing the wildfire spokesperson will have his pinky toe as a spoil of war.
Disability
Trent suffered a stroke at the age of 4 months after having a severe allergic reaction to antibiotics. The resultant neurological damage caused spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy in his left limbs. In order to compete he has modified his bicycle so all shifting and braking functions are controlled by the dominant hand.
