Video: Inside Casey Brown’s All-Women Dark Horse Event
Dark Horse is the event that Casey Brown wishes she had when she was coming up in freeride. It’s four days of her own design: a brand new jump line in her hometown of Revelstoke, British Columbia, and a chance to uncover the latest and greatest women’s freeride mountain bikers.

Watching that video was so rad and so inspiring. Awesome to see ladies joining in what is often a very male dominated side of the sport. And that 12 year old, just WOW, my boys can’t even begin to ride like her!!!
