Women’s cycling is thriving - whether it’s racing, freeride, or simply getting out on the trails, more women than ever are riding bikes. One person who’s playing a key role in her local scene is 3-time 4X World Champion Anneke Beerten. Since moving to Bentonville, AR, Anneke has been involved in setting up women-only group rides, skills clinics, and classes to help boost their skills and confidence. Rich caught up with her to discuss her tips on how to grow the women’s mountain biking scene, the state of women’s MTB these days, and where it’s going in future.
