Why No Y?
We recently started a family xc bike club in our area. We have a lot of young girls, which is great! I feel a little bad for the boys as they are greatly outnumbered. For myself, a woman xc rider/racer, I learned a lot more from riding with other women. Perhaps because we speak the same language. Now that I'm confident with my skills, I don't care who I ride with as long as I get to ride! I am not a big fan of the phrase "getting chicked." I think that encourages a male vs. female atmosphere. So what if you can keep up with or pass the guys? For me its all about challenging myself and having fun.
