WOMEN’S MOUNTAIN BIKE RACE
Our event is more than just another mountain bike race, it is a celebration of all women who ride; no matter the color of their skin, body shape or size, skill level, where they ride, how often or the bike they ride.
Skirts in the Dirt is free for those 12 and under in the Squirts in the Dirt Category!
We take pride in cultivating a safe place for all non-traditional mountain bike riders to comfortably experience a beginner-friendly racing atmosphere.
We are inclusive the LGBTQ , Femme and NB community!
It is our hope that it leads to more races down the trail.
Thank you to our community for supporting this event!
Why Race?
There are a lot of reasons why we encourage you to race mountain bikes!
We love seeing everyone learn, get stronger, ride further, and all of the friendships that come from spending time together on the trails. Having a race on the horizon can help push you to spend more time on your bike - and we love that!!
