The BC Bike Race Announces The Participation Of The LUNA Pro Team
he LUNA Pro Teams’ motto, “We are dedicated to getting more women into sports and outside to play,” dovetails nicely into the overall vision of the BC Bike Race. As a seven-day epic mountain bike stage race that incorporates some of the World’s finest singletrack, we believe that health and well being are directly related to stress relief and self-actualization.
Beginner Mountain Biking Tips
I have been mountain biking for almost 13 years and seriously for the last 5 years. I began leading a beginners mountain bike group from work, and knowing that I was them a few years back which really put things in perspective for me. I wouldn’t even attempt a creek crossing, and if I did, my heart would be in my throat just waiting on my front wheel to buckle.

As I have branched out and began riding more trails in the Pisgah National Forest, I can see how far my riding has improved over the years.

Bike clothing manufacturers are making baggy bike shorts for those of us that want to be comfortable on the trails and not self conscious.
Woman's Beginner Mountain Bike Clinic
Today, Jenn and I headed down to Conyers, GA so that she could attend a woman’s beginner clinic held by Namrita O’Dea. Namrita is on her way to becoming the fastest endurance racer in the woman’s class so her advise for Jenn was going to be incredible. Her and her husband Eddie (another endurance monster) also own 55Nine Performance.
