Gwendalyn grew up in Southern California and began racing and riding mountain bikes in NICA as a freshman in high school.
Her biggest motivator is pushing her limits as an athlete, which means regularly stepping outside her comfort zone. More than anything, riding and racing have been her happy place since she started, and she can’t imagine her life without trails. She attended Colorado Mesa University, where she completed a bachelor’s degree in exercise science. After her racing career, she hopes to work in a performance lab and help other athletes push the limits of what’s possible. Gwendalyn’s favourite off‑the‑bike activity is making coffee for herself and her friends. Another dream she has is to one day open a café!
