Samuel William Gaze (born 12 December 1995) is a New Zealand cross-country and road cyclist, who currently rides for UCI WorldTeam Template:Cycling data AFC.[4] He won the under-23 Cross-Country at the 2016 UCI Mountain Bike & Trials World Championships and the 2017 UCI Mountain Bike World Championships. He also competes on occasion in road racing events, winning the National Criterium Championships in 2017 and 2018.
Career
At the Men's cross-country event at the 2014 Commonwealth Games, Gaze won the silver medal behind fellow New Zealand rider Anton Cooper.[5][6] Gaze was selected ahead of Cooper, who had medical conditions during 2016, to represent New Zealand at the 2016 Summer Olympics. He had two punctures in the Olympic race and his gears failed, and he pulled out when he got lapped.[7]
In March 2018, Gaze became the first New Zealander to win an elite UCI Mountain Bike World Cup title, when he claimed the cross country event in the first round of the season in Stellenbosch, South Africa.[8] In April 2018, Gaze won the gold medal in the cross country event at the 2018 Commonwealth Games.[9] Despite his win, Gaze came under significant media attention for his perceived unsportsmanlike behaviour towards his compatriot and silver place winner Cooper. Gaze was fined CHF200 by the International Cycling Union for showing Cooper the finger during the race.[10][11]
In August 2019, Gaze joined UCI WorldTeam Template:Cycling data QST as a stagiaire for the second half of the season.[12] For 2020, Gaze joined the Alpecin–Fenix team to contest road and mountain biking events.[2]
Personal life
Of Māori descent, Gaze affiliates to the Te Āti Awa iwi.[13]
