From Kim Stokeld, founder and director of Australian Mountain Bike Clinics:
The ladies at Australian Mountain Biking Clinics are on a mission to get more girls into mountain biking. In the recent Chix Survey we sent out asking what everyone wanted, there was an overwhelming request of women’s skills weekends and also availability of childcare. We listened and here it is!
We’ll be running our first chix skills weekend at Wiseman’s Ferry on 14-15 August.
Catering for all levels of female rider, this fun, social weekend will give you a fantastic opportunity to develop and improve your skills with our fantastic team of female trainers. Fees include one night’s accommodation, most meals plus your choice of a funky AMBC Ride Like a Girl jersey. A non-accommodated option plus childcare is also available.
