Jacquie Phelan's Free Women's Mountain Biking Workshop Returns April 12th

Our Women Bike PHL program is bringing back one of our most popular events ever.





Mountain biking legend Jacquie Phelan returns to Philadelphia for the 2nd Annual Women's MTB Clinic, presented by Fuji Bikes.

Jacquie is an undaunted and tireless advocate for women, girls, and non-competitive riders in mountain biking. She is a charter member of the Mountain Bike Hall of Fame, a member of the United States Bicycling Hall of Fame, and founded WOMBATS (Women's Mountain Bike & Tea Society). And she has her own Wikipedia page.

This 3-hour clinic is beginner-friendly, for women only, and is completely free. You do need to bring your own mountain bike and helmet. The group is limited to 35 people and this will sell out fast like whoa.

MTB Workshop, Presented by Women Bike PHL and Fuji Bikes
Saturday, April 12th (rain or shine)
1:00 - 4:00 PM
Pachella Pavillion, Wissahickon Park

Jacquie Phelan Workshop Photo Roundup

A week later and we're still basking in the warm, ebullient glow of the women's mountain biking workshop with Jacquie Phelan. We joined more than 30 women and the legendary mountain bicyclist in the Wissahickon for three hours of inspiration, mountain biking, and tea and biscuits.

Big thanks are due, of course, to Jacquie herself. Additional thanks go to Breezer Bikes, Potito's Bakery, Blake Larson for his excellent photography, and the women who joined us for the event!

Bunny hop over to our Facebook page to see the full photo gallery from the workshop.

This event was part of a new campaign we're kicking off this spring: Women Bike PHL. The campaign seeks to make riding a bicycle more fun and feasible for Philadelphia women of all ages and backgrounds. Stay tuned for more events and updates!
