The two women selected to represent the United States in the Olympic Games, Georgia Gould (Fort Collins, Colo./LUNA PRO TEAM) and Lea Davison (Jericho, Vt./Specialized Racing), also dazzled the large crowd scattered throughout Bald Mountain with their performance on Saturday. Gould, who began her mountain bike cross-country career as a resident of Ketchum, Idaho, built an early lead and did not relent as she rode away with the fourth national championship of her career.

"It's really special," Gould said of winning the national championship. "It never gets old. To be able to wear the national champion's jersey at all the races all year always makes me proud. Every time is special. It never gets old. I'm always proud to be the national champion," according to the official press release by USA Cycling.
