Testimonials
"Wow. Just wow. I knew I’d learn a few things. But I didn’t count on learning TONS of golden nuggets that I now find myself repeating like mantras as I corner, compress and jump my way down my favorite trails. Thank you everyone at Ladies AllRide for inspiring me, re-invigorating my spirit and making my bike more fun. Now, off to practice my wheelies…. Till next year!"

“You humanized mountain biking for me! You made me see women can do the same things men can on a bike!”
- Susan K.— Brevard, NC
"I can't even begin to put into words the affect you've had on me in just the two days I got to spend with you in July. You've really helped me in finding that path back to myself again. Don't ever stop doing what you do because you are making a difference."
- Brandy — Duluth, MN
"So many people have tried to teach me how to wheelie over the years and I've never gotten it. Lindsey gets her hands on me for five minutes and I'm wheelie-ing all over the place! WTF? #awesome #magic"
- Liz — Ladies AllRide student turned coach
“I just wanted to thank you for such an amazing weekend. This was hands down the best experience I have had on a mountain bike. I have been riding for over two decades and didn’t realize how many things I wasn’t doing correctly and it helped the plateau I had reached. Beyond bikes, your optimism and positive attitudes really went a LONG way. I have realized I talk myself down as a way to protect myself if I fail at something. When Lindsey wouldn’t allow me to give up or say negative things about myself and my abilities, it changed me. What a breath of fresh air you and your whole team were. Keep up the great work!”
- Kim — Bend, OR
"Lindsey is simply stated: AWESOME! She keeps you smiling and helps you build confidence making it possible to progress the skills most of us have, but are afraid to really test."
- Chelsea — Grand Targhee, WY
"I just wanted to send a note to tell you today was my first ride after the camp and I am thrilled to tell you a few things: 1. I kept up with Mark! 2. You've turned me from a roadie into a mountain biker! 3. I was jumping over rocks for fun! Most important of all, it was a total blast because I no longer feel debilitated by fear! Thank you thank you!"
- Emily M.— Grand Targhee, WY
Finally, I genuinely appreciate how authentic and team-oriented the women of Ladies AllRide are; they are setting a good example for current and future generations, which is unfortunately too rare these days. It’s cool to be yourself! Thanks to the incredible women of Ladies AllRide and all the sponsors! I’ll be back next year!"

"Before the 2017 Ladies AllRide Big Sky clinic, I let my limitations as a rider define me. Post-clinic, I envision the possibilities with confidence. Being a clinic and mountain biking newbie, I was nervous and unsure of what to expect. Any prior concerns I had completely vanished upon my first interactions with the Ladies AllRide crew, especially Lindsey, Meredith, and Ali. They were completely approachable, inclusive, and friendly. These women are the real deal! The clinic was well organized and it was evident how much time and effort was put toward dividing women into appropriate level groups. No matter what level you were, you received the same personalized attention from a coach. My coach, Meredith, immediately established a wonderful culture of support and encouragement within the group. She also taught me how to pop a wheelie, which I never thought would be possible!
- Hannah S. — Vermont
"It must be so refreshing to you that the people you coach consistently have the same feedback - you pique interest, but don't pressure. I was doing things I would have never tried if you hadn't proven to us that we could do it. You all are such an inspiration!"
- Sarah W. — Grand Targhee, WY
"Defying gravity, and the little voices inside my head that say I can’t... This sport is a connector. It connects us to a sense of freedom from the craziness of the world. It connects us to new boundaries and limits, both physical and mental, we can surpass. It connects us to adventure, trail laughs and stories we’ll remember forever. Most importantly, it connects us to like-minded individuals who share the love of this great sport. This is more than just a clinic; it’s a small world you can live in for a few days that’s filled with adventurous, fun-loving, freedom-seeking women who are like big kids that refuse to grow up, and who doesn’t need more of that in their life?"
- Amber — Sedona, AZ
"What an amazing two days! I have learned more from you and your awesome coaches than I have in 20+ years of riding! Your passion for helping us become better riders is so inspirational. I can't wait to practice my new skills because I am riding in more control already."
- Karen — Bend, OR
"I never thought I needed a lesson on how to ride a bike until my friends talked me into this camp. I now realize mountain biking is NOT just riding a bike. This weekend showed me how to face fears, overcome challenges and think thoughts that serve me. It's pretty unreal how all of this relates to life and I've never looked at it this way. Thank you for what you do. I think I'm addicted to learning more about mountain biking!"
- Jane — Copper Harbor, MI
"So funny, I came home from the clinic going on and on to my husband about "peek and push" "wipe your butt on the berm" "boobs over the bars" and he thought I was crazy. But then he went on a ride and came home saying: "my cornering was so much better when I wipe my butt on the berm!" I laughed and laughed! You help so many people, not just the women who take your camps! Thank you!"
