Gloria, in just five years in the MTB world, has had the chance to compete at the highest level across multiple disciplines. She stood on two UCI Enduro World Cup podiums and earned three UCI DH World Cup podiums, which reflects her versatility and adaptability as a rider. Being ranked inside the top fifteen in the world motivates her to keep pushing and raising her standards every season.
When not on her bike, she’s always looking for adventure. She spends her time surfing, skiing, backcountry skiing, and climbing. Exploring different sports keeps her mentally fresh, physically strong, and constantly connected to the mountains and the ocean. Most importantly, she has a lot of fun doing it. Gloria loves riding in the mountains at home in Italy. The variety of terrain and conditions allows her to express her riding style and constantly improve her skills. Being surrounded by nature and challenging trails is where she feels most alive and inspired to push her limits. Gloria’s future goal is to win!
