Vic’s Espresso/Peerless 2009 Rider Photo and Profile Zack Gould DOB: February 18, 1995 Age: 14 Years Racing: 5 Hometown: Boulder, CO Occupation: Cyclist/Student Category: Junior There is something truly exciting about a young athlete who becomes inspired and then goes onto perform at a high level in sports. Zack first got into bike racing when he was nine years old and saw the TDF on TV. He said, “he thought it was really cool and wanted to try it out. Luckily my mom is really good friends with Randy Gaffney and he got me started and on a team”. Zack has taken it from there and regularly trains and shows up at time trials, hill climbs, criterium, road races, mountain bike races, and cyclo-cross races, producing great results. Zack’s favorite training ride is Super-Flagstaff, where he rides his Specialized Tarmac SL2. Zack said the VO2max performance testing at the Boulder Center for Sports Medicine is good because, “you have to really push yourself to your limit.” He also admitted he enjoys “any sort of painfully hard sport.” Zack turns on the TV and blasts the music when training indoors in winter, but also likes running and swimming. Zack said if he were not riding a bike he would like to be a surfer in California. Zack has tremendous goals and said he would like to have a good education, and graduate from an Ivy or Ivy equivalent school (Stanford) with a 4.0 GPA - graduating Phi Beta Kappa. He would also like to make it to the professional level in cycling and win a National, World and Olympic Gold. Zack likes hanging out with friends, likes an espresso or a hot chocolate at Vic’s Espresso, and lists his superhero as Taylor Phinney. Zack is a great addition to the team and said it is important to him to be “a good teammate and have a world-wide positive impact on the sport.” Zack Gould’s Top Race Results: Road: 2nd Road National Cycling Championships, Seven Springs PA, 2007 5th Criterium National Cycling Championships, Seven Springs PA, 2007 1st State Criterium Championships, Colorado, 2007 1st State Road Championships, Colorado, 2007 2nd State Time Trial Championships, Colorado, 2007 1st State Road Championships, Colorado, 2006 2nd State Time Trial Championships, Colorado, 2006 Cyclo-Cross: 2nd Brecktobercross, Colorado, 2008 2nd Frisco Cyclocross #1, Colorado, 2008 3rd On the Cross #1, Colorado, 2008 1st On the Cross #2, Colorado, 2008 2nd Grand Prix of Cyclocross, Portland, Oregon, 2007 (Race #1) 2nd Grand Prix of Cyclocross, Portland, Oregon, 2007 (Race #2) 2nd State Cyclocross Championships, Colorado, 2007 2nd National Cyclocross Championships, Providence RI, 2006 1st State Cyclocross Championships, Colorado, 2006 6th National Cyclocross Championships, Providence RI, 2005 2nd State Cyclocross Championships, Colorado, 2005 2nd State Cyclocross Championships, Colorado, 2004 Mountain Bike: 2nd NMBS Snowmass Mountain Bike Race, Colorado, 2007 2nd Eldora Mountain Bike Race, Colorado, 2007 Time Trial: 2nd Colorado Time Trial Championships (JM13-14), Colorado, 2009 2nd Rabbit Mountain Individual Time Trial (JM13-14), Colorado, 2009 3rd Haystack Mountain ITT, Colorado, 2008 Hill Climb: 1st Lookout Mountain Hill Climb (JM13-14), Colorado, 2009 4th Sunshine Hill Climb, Colorado, 2008 Criterium: 1st North Boulder Park Crit, Colorado, 2008 4th Niwot Criterium, Colorado, 2008 More Rider Information Click More Vic’s Espresso Rider Profiles to return to view more riders.
