Having been a mountain bike owner for 20+ years that never really took to mountain biking, I decided this is the year I'm going to learn to ride that daggon bike properly and actually enjoy riding it (and ride mountain more than once a year). The orientation class was amazing! I love how it started right at the beginning! I've been out twice since Saturday trying to practice my positions and keep my feet level (and heels down). I can't wait until the member rides pick back up in a couple months. I'm kicking myself for not joining, when I first investigated in march! Thanks to all you ladies for being out there. Cynthia, Amy, and Paula were amazing!

I've always wanted to try mountain biking but I was very intimidated by it and I didn't even know where to start. I ran into DSS at a local park and it was as simple as them inviting me out on a ride to get started. They even loaned me a bike! Now I'm hooked. Can't thank these ladies enough!221 CommentLikeCommentShare

DSS is unique because they take women from zero to hero! From “how do I use my brakes?” to cornering and “not breaking here anymore!” And the big exciting leap into racing! Me? Yes! Don’t worry, Lisa will help you get there!
