After Saturday she can finally add another title - a cross country win in the National Mountain Bike Series.

Nash won Saturday's race at Deer Valley, finishing the three-lap course in 1 hour, 50 minutes and 51 seconds.

The men's title went to Ryan Trebon, who finished four laps in 2:08.42.

Following right behind Nash were teammates Georgia Gould and Catherine Pendrel, giving team LUNA a top-three sweep in the women's race.

None though could have been happier than Nash, the veteran of the team whose past titles have all been in short track.

"I've been all over the podium, just not at the top," Nash said of her past cross country races. "I've ridden a lot and I like the course here and it all came together for me."

Her season had a rough start when she injured her left knee, a setback that not only hurt her earlier performances but cost her a spot on the Czech Olympic team because she couldn't perform well in the three World Cup races her country used as its qualifiers.

However, she has been riding better as the season has gone along and is leading the NMBS overall standings in cross country and short track.

Nash, coming off a 12th-place showing at the World Championships, was in the front bunch Saturday and had a comfortable lead by the time the leaders made their way down the hillside and to the finish.

"It was a smooth ride," she said. "We kept up a fast pace and this turned out to be the day for me."
