| July 02, 2008 | | women's mountain bike weekend in Breckenridge | *Increase your confidence on your bike.* *Take your riding skills to the next level.* *Gain a centered, balanced and energized approach to tackling all of life's challenges... both on and off the trails.
Join the knowledgeable, patient and fun coaches from Babes in the Backcountry and Rip Stoke to increase your overall enjoyment on your mountain bike. Whether you are a beginner looking to learn the basics or a veteran rider seeking to hone your technical skills on steep switchbacks and challenging terrain, the Bike Babes Get A Way offer this and more. The Babes' philosophy of moving from center is woven throughout the weekend, including morning yoga, afternoon spa treatments and healthy organic meals. 
Why Women's Specific?Although BIB offers limited coed and couples workshops, they have chosen to focus on women's specific programming to celebrate women exploring their passions. The Babes' workshops help to create a balance in the outdoor community by encouraging more women to become involved in backcountry pursuits. Stepping outside the traditional mixed gender environment, women of all ages have an opportunity to explore themselves in a place void of competition. When women gather, amazing connections occur. These are spaces/containers where women are able to reinvent themselves, reconnect with the strength and power within, and rejuvenate at a core level. Women only gatherings allow women to gain a deeper respect for other women of different backgrounds, ages and interests. Through this coming together, we gain a deeper understanding of what it means to be all “one”- all “connected”.
