Dear bike companies, please pay female freeriders fairly and it will incourage more to push towards freeride thus influence more kids to ride bikes as watching elite women xc suffer fest is not really enticing young kids to pick up the sport. The freeride side of mtb is the aspirational side of riding bikes.
We make a point of driving out to CGP (pre-pandemic) once a year in early March to enjoy the weather and riding before it gets nice in Calgary. I remember thinking a few years ago that the little redhead girl shredding laps was going places. Nice to know I was right. Super nice girl and I'm glad to see her progression has continued in the pandemic.
I remember meeting her and seeing her rip on a trip to CGP maybe 3 years ago - you could tell then that she was going to evolve into a pretty special rider. Awesome to see this - just killing it
Thumbs up. I meet her on the pmbia course last summer. Went later sme summer to gravity Coast Park, Saw her there and tried to follow her throught Coastal Cruise, I couldn't. She kills it.
Great riding and a great video. Sound in particular was awesome. Nice to have a bit of a soundtrack in the background, but even better when you can really hear the bike on the trail and that lovely freehub, even in slo mo. Love it. Other movie makers take note.
Also pretty close to my current dream bike, with the marzocchi suspension and everything. Only change thinking about running single speed again.
Pinned. looks like Canada may have some heat in a year or two if someone can get this kid some plan tickets. DM me in a year and I'll see if I can help Gracey...
Good for her, and I hope she enjoys a lifetime of injury free riding. I'm a little tired of all these videos of people "sending" these buffed trails. Kudos to trail builders everywhere who build trails with easy transitions and take-offs. Where I live basically everyone is "sending" these kinds of trails. Once you've learned a few basics it's nothing special. Fun though.
You're a db, she's 16 and doing gnarly shit on a bike. Where are the videos of you "sending" these trails. I think its you that's tired, cause I sure as hell am not tired of seeing videos like this.
