About us
The MTBChix&Trails Facebook group is a place for like minded girls to talk bikes, ask advice and arrange rides. It is a members only group, just for women, so there's no need to worry about asking anything. We have members who are beginners and have just bought their first bike right through to women who race Downhill, and many more in between.
The Chix are full of encouragement for women who enjoy any aspect of mountain biking.
Whether you've had a bad ride or you're off your bike due to injury,
or maybe you want to ask for some advice on a bike related topic,
there's always something happening on the MTBChix&Trails group.
MTBChix&Trails was founded by Michelle, Sarah, Dawn and Ash. They wanted somewhere for women to chat and meet up to ride. A lot of mountain bike groups were heavily influenced by men, who might not have the same questions or aims as women. Many of our members ask female specific questions, such as do women really need a women's bike, or advice on smaller fitting clothes. Some women have less confidence and want friendly faces to ride with and build confidence with. Some members want to know about how to get sponsorship as a woman, or they just want to ride with a group of girls!
MTBChix&Trails is an active group, where there is always something going on, something to talk about, comment on or a ride being arranged! Everyone is friendly and happy to chat or share information. We all started somewhere, where we didn't know about bikes, or maybe wary of technical features. There's no better way to build confidence and build your skills than with a friendly group of girls, encouraging each other and having a giggle while you practice.
Some of our members have entered their first race since joining the Chix, with the encouragement and support of the group. We all support each other, calm each other's nerves, whether it's your first race or you've raced many times before and have had podium places!
