Women are active at all levels of the MMBA.  Friendships develop between novice and experienced riders, beginners and pros.  The MMBA supports programs that offer women the opportunity to mountain bike in a safe and fun environment.

• Becoming an Outdoors-Woman: Our annual women-specific riding clinic
• Girlbike: Weekly rides for all levels throughout Southeast Michigan

Visit the MMBA Forum's The Dirl Grrrls Lounge to connect with other women who love to hit the trails.

This active group of women lead women-only rides on a variety of mountain bike trails throughout Southeast Michigan. Their Monday evening rides are at 6:30 p.m. at the ever-popular Island Lake Recreation Area. Their weekly rides run from the beginning of May through the end of September. Riders of all skill levels are welcome.  This is a no-drop ride, meaning that the whole group will stick together.

Velo Bella is a non-profit, grassroots, multi-discipline cycling team whose mission is "to encourage women to get out and ride a bike, race a bike, and to eventually grow the pool of talent and have a bit of fun along the way. While the core Velo Bella Team is a committed group of female racers, membership includes female cyclists interested in completing their first race, century, or even group ride."

Connect with the Velo Bella ladies on their regional forum or general forum.
