Extra, extra!
This year we are organizing a virtual challenge through March just for members to help everyone stay accountable over the winter months. View details on our Strava club here and join us!

Pre-requisite: 

Our January Leadville fat biking adventure!

You need to have had some experience mountain biking prior to this program. Ideally being able to complete an easy “blue” ride without problems. You should be fit enough to ride for a hour with minimum stops for water (and to take pictures of course!)


OR new to mountain biking in general?
Check out our women’s beginner mountain biking course .  
These sessions pair coached sessions on handpicked beginner friendly trails and clinics with expert guest speakers on topics that range from how to handle technical terrain, gear for mnt biking, safety on the trails (like what to do if you see a rattlesnake) and more!


Races and adventure rides? Tell me more!

We are planning adventure weekends with epic riding options for all levels! 
Weekends camping locally, shuttle rides including sections of the CT, downhill days at Trestle (Winter Park) and our annual spring season opener trip to Fruita and a fall trip to Moab where in addition to 4 days of riding we fit in SUP down the Colorado river, hiking and more fun!

If you are seeking a bigger goal for 2023 we have women training for races including gravel races and the Beti Bike Bash. There are options for all levels, last year we had the largest team of first time racers!
We will dedicate at least one session a week with specific objectives to work towards training for a race, PLUS a 6 week training plan to follow with day by day workouts AND offer a race training/strategy clinic.
