Ullr Bike 2017
Ullr Bike 2017! Six feet of snow has fallen in Breckenridge, CO since the beginning of December. It’s a glorious thing for our little ski town and ideal for all of the winter sports, well, except for maybe Fat Biking. Fat Bikers like the snow solid and packed. If Mother Nature decided to sprinkle a little […]
October Bikenridge Useletter
The October Bikenridge Useletter is our last of the season. It is also a great time to take advantage of warm afternoons, hero dirt (from the recent precipitation) and empty trails.

Summer is here! I signed up for a trail half-marathon in August. Ironically, I can’t seem to get off my bike! June proved to be a breakthrough month for my personal riding. It seems the last few years of “try and try again” riding, the super instructional and motivating VIDA MTB Clinic and hilarious attempts […]
Life is short – ride bikes.
“You just rode with a couple of the best lady mountain bikers around here,” beams my boyfriend with a proud smile. He is referring to Jacque Ball and Cat Ambrose whom we coincidently encountered on our late afternoon ride. “Oh, I know.” I thought. Ball and Ambrose ride for the Yeti Beti Women’s Mountain Bike Team […]
