Who are we? Collectively, we are part of the largest percentage of the population, born between 1946 and 1964. We are strong women who are re-inventing age, seeing ourselves at least 12 years younger.

Welcome to our tribe! We are a range of riders from first treads to hammerheads, and from kids to those who will never grow up. We believe that all trails in life should flow, roots and boulders add character to the ride, every journey could be an epic one, and a little sweat on the ascent will blow off as the rubber takes flight from the dirt. Just follow the safety rules, be courteous, show up for rides you responded "yes" to, and have fun.

She speaks her truth, walks her own path, lives by principle instead of c …
