Maghalie Rochette (Canyon Collective) returned to the podium on Sunday with a solo victory at the C2 elite women’s race at Virginia’s Blue Ridge GO Cross. In a replication of Saturday’s podium, Caroline Mani (Groove Off Road Racing) finished second, 1:53 back, and Raylyn Nuss (Steve Tilford Foundation Racing) took third, 2:19 off the winning pace.

Rain made the track at Fallon Park slippery on Sunday for C2 races, with the same features and a course run in reverse.
