Luna team member, Georgia Gould, at the beginning of the pro women’s XC race, which she won by over four minutes.
Below, Kiara Bisaro and Katerina Nash battle it out on the second lap. They would finish in second and third place, respectively, in these same positions.

This first photo is a truly awesome photo because it was the beginning and the end of the race. Who the heck is Georgia Gould? Incredible performance. It’s really unbelievable.
The men’s field had to form a 5-man breakaway and work together to counter the wind. Georgia just rides away. I mean ride away. She put over 4 minutes on second place and 10 minutes on 4th place. How crazy is that? I’d be super-depressed if I was competing against her all year.
If anyone knows her background, fill us in!

Did Franics just ask who the heck is Georgia Gould? Where has he been?

Who’s Franics? Hey, I know Sabine… super pro XC, CX, RD racer. Are you Sabine from Norcal? Or Sabine the super XC pro?
I’ve heard the name Georgia Gould but the performance is just unheard of domination. Furtado-esque
You’re right… on that top 10, list above, I only know 5 of the names.
