by Joe Bellante with additional coverage by Molly Hurford CINCINNATI, OHIO – The first race with the Euro crew assembled for Worlds next week is in the books, and it’s clear that despite a trans-Atlantic voyage, nothing is stopping the Euro invasion.

While many top riders made the trip to Europe for the final World Cup starts, the ever-dangerous Georgia Gould stayed stateside to gear up on home turf. After an especially long [...]
