“Even though it's a group environment I felt like I had more individual attention then I expected. It was like each week was written just for me.”
- Jessica, Group Program Participant
“I have always had issues narrowing down my goals and giving up because it's too hard to do it all. With this program I was able to focus on a few that were achievable and even better - sustainable. Erica helped me focus on those goals and add more as I continued on my journey.”

Success Stories from Women Like You!
Meet Erica, your coach.
I started as a total beginner mountain biker in the spring of 2018. Although I’ve always been a fairly active adult, I’d lost focus on my fitness with the busyness of life. Riding 6 miles was a BIG accomplishment that first summer.
Eight mountain bikes and five years later, I now compete in endurance MTB races, train other athletes, and help women around the US start their own MTB communities.
Never did I imagine on that first ride that I would go from 6 miles being exhausting to riding 80+ miles in one day during an endurance MTB race where I placed 1st!
All this while raising a family, leading organizations, and volunteering as a coach for student athletes. (And finding time to read a good book here and there every once in a while…)
A lot of women ask me how I do it. How do I find time to ride with everything on my plate?
The truth? I’ve had to learn to prioritize my health and prioritize myself. And, I invested in myself through skills clinics, learning bike maintenance, buying gear that worked for me, and surrounding myself with other women who love to ride.
