 | | Paola began mountain bike racing in 1989 for Bianchi, and in 1992, she switched to the Gary Fisher team. |
 | | From her Olympic Gold until the end of the 1997 season, she won every race she started, including her World Cup, in a dominant style seen only from the likes of Juliana Furtado before her. |
 | | Her phenomenal racing success, coupled with her physical beauty and unassuming nature, has catapulted her to mass-media stardom, attracting much interest to mountain biking, particularly in Europe. |
