Girls Ride Tuesday is a program to empower women to get involved in the sport of dirt biking and motocross.
So what makes Girls Ride Tuesday special it gives us our own space and opportunity, to try riding the track With lots of support.
You have beginners, you have advanced riders.
Everybody's helping each other.
It's, it's a more mellow, laid back time.
it's just creates a special space for women supporting women and girls to ride.
There's so many differences between men and women riding.
So when you have someone who is able to kind of show you the ropes, but from a perspective that you'd understand, it's so much easier to get into it.
And I think when you give women a place to find other wome that do the same thing and have a little bit of camaraderi and community, like, that's huge like that.
That's life changing.
Like, seriously, when I was growing up, I feel like there was like 2 or 3 of us, you know, that were racing like pretty competitively.
And then over the last maybe five, ten years, like, you see a lot of organizations like Girls Ride Too, that are starting to pop up, which is so cool.
like, every single place needs t have one, because I think that that's how you get more women in the sport.
