Luna Chix



Yesterday and Today, I met some pretty powerful ladies. These gurls are not only great mountain bike riders but also have great personalities. They are on a mission to get more women on a mountain bike and strengthen the lives of women. How cool is that? What group of women do you know that is all about strengthening each other and not about being caddy?? I don't know many. There is one rule... No "I'm sorry.". You can't apologize for holding up the group, because that's what they want you to do. Can you believe it? They want you to ask.. how come??? how do I? and Can I follow your trail to learn?? AWESOME!

It was another successful ride for me. I ended up with one fall (just like last time). This one was me riding/falling off the bike backwards. On Wednesday, my ride mate said it wasn't possible to go backwards off the mountain. He owes me $100. I did it today and have people to prove it. HA! The great thing was, I learned how to get up some steep climbs and felt more confident on my descents. I even learned some tricks to make holding the bike easier. You can really pick things up on the mountain because your body or bike tells you loud and clear if its working. I like that!

Awesome morning! I can't wait to get back out there again. My ridemate comes back to Phoenix tonight or tomorrow.. so here's hoping I get to ride next week with him!
