Simone Biles ‘living out her dreams’ on the road with Jordan Chiles as tour starts TONIGHT
Simone Biles is enjoying life on the road with her American gymnastics teammate Jordan Chiles on the Gold Over America Tour, which kicks off Monday.
After winning three gold medals and one silver at the Paris Olympics this summer, the 27-year-old is gearing up to headline this fall.
On Sunday, Biles posted photos of her gymnastics colleagues performing in front of an American audience on a very different stage.
“Just a couple of girls out and about, living their dreams,” Biles captioned the article.
The first photo is a selfie with Chiles. In the second and third slides, Melanie De Jesus Dos Santos and Joscelyn Roberson join for group photos.
Simone Biles lives her dream on the road ahead of the Gold Over America Tour
Biles seemed to be enjoying the buildup to the tour after becoming the most decorated American gymnast in Paris. On September 12, she posted a video showing off a new “trick” she learned from Sky Blakely.
In the clip, Biles positions herself upside down on the balance beam, cradling the platform between her head and arms and resting her shoulders on top of it.
With her legs straight, Biles does two 180-degree turns in this position before stepping down with a cheering laugh.
“Learned something new,” she wrote. “@skyblakely I don’t know how you do this every day.”
Biles will headline the 30-city gymnastics tour. Joining her on the roster are Team USA teammates Jade Carey, Chiles and nine other athletes.
Men’s gymnastics medal winners Stephen Nedoroscik, Fred Richard, Paul Juda and Brody Malone will also participate in the all-star tour.
“From the world stage to the GOAT stage, this incredible journey continues and I can’t wait for fans to see what we have in store this year,” Biles said in a press release for the event. “I love creating unforgettable memories for our audiences every night on tour.”
The tour kicks off at Frontwave Arena in Oceanside and ends on November 3 at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit.
