MTB For Women Festival – Full Send
Festival – FULL SEND
The festival is YOUR day and there are many things to enjoy!
Please choose ONE of the 90-minute skills clinics to attend. Many previous participants found that taking two 90-minute clinics took a lot more energy than they had, so we encourage folks to instead try the various self-selected maintenance classes, join a social ride, play around with your new skills in the bike park, connect with fellow riders and the bike community at large, enjoy your lunch and ice cream, and peruse the merchants, non-profits, and artisans in our Vendor Village. It’ll be a FULL day.
