In September 2016 she was announced as part of the WM3 Pro Cycling squad for 2017.[5] Plichta was meant to join Belgian team Lensworld–Kuota in 2018, but the team was disbanded in late October 2017 when their title sponsor Lensworld's new parent company, LensOnline decided to not continue sponsorship of the cycling team.[6] After it was announced that Nikki Brammeier would leave Boels–Dolmans at the end of 2017 to concentrate on cyclo-cross, Plichta was offered the position on Boels–Dolmans in early November 2017.[7]

Her favourite place to ride is in the Polish mountains.[8]
