Mountain biking is an increasingly popular outdoor pursuit, providing a fun way to be active and healthy, whilst enjoying the great outdoors. Thousands of riders head out to the trails each day to participate in what is often considered an extreme, male-centric activity – or is it?
Bicycle Queensland headed off road and dropped in on a group of women from various backgrounds to ask them about their mountain bike journey to date. From why they ride to how to get started – we left inspired by their stories. These women show us that you’re never too old to get started and debunked the myth that mountain bike riding is not for women!
We invite you to make a coffee, put your feet up and read through our MTB ride guide. This booklet provides you with tips and information on how to get started and enjoy your time on the trails.
