Female riders Northern Sydney
My girl has just got into MTB riding and when she cant ride with me she is looking for girls to ride with, she is not yet fully bike fit but is working on it so not looking for race pace or anything like that. She has just been riding the Perimeter and Long tracks but now has a new bike so we can advance onto other trails.
so if there are any girls out there looking for a riding companion sing out!

There was a facebook group that had an article done on them in the Manly Daily a week or so before the Mont. They ride mainly Terrey Hills, a bit less scary than Manly Dam, which puts a lot of riders of the female persuasion off the sport if tackled too early.

Very nice bunch of people very much into riding plus the social aspect.
my wife is in the exact same boat so we should try and get them together
she wanted to get into mtn biking so i got her a fuel ex 8 for xmas ive taken her out a few times but she rides mostly by herself. she really enjoys it but very difficuly to get out with her with young kids. shed been out to long/perimiter a few times but havnt taken her to the dam or OMV yet
shes preferes the "scenic" approach to biking (nothing wrong with that either) so pm me and we should get them together.
ps happy wife = more riding for us

Their Blurb "Chocolate Foot and Ride In Workshop are combining forces to try and get behind women's riding on the Northern Beaches. We will be organising a women's social ride once a month giving girls a chance to meet other riders and get out there and explore the local trails.
NEXT RIDE - 14 April, Long Trail, Duffy's Forest"
The groups that have been created for the ladies are fantastic and helps get more of us out there! I would also strongly encourage the ladies to ride with the guys as it will improve your riding abilities and confidence. My training partner is a guy (about 10 years younger) and training with him over the years has by far improved not only my fitness but also my abilities! He is also very patient......
