quotes The Aussie national series lights up my winter. There's no race footage from elsewhere in the world and so it's easy to follow and the riding down under at such a high level that it's awesome to watch. I think the offset seasons are a real advantage for aussie racers (racing all year round and racing is the best training for racing, right? although I bet it's absolutely exhausting too). Good movie though, I love race footage and I love the tracks on the Aussie series! Also, there's been this women in mountain biking debate going on lately and I've taken a lot of flak for saying this in the past... but I totally agree with what Tracey Hannah says about not riding like a girl -- guys are more powerful and active on their bikes. They are more preemptive when they ride and it makes all the difference. I love watching women ride, Women of Dirt is one of my fave movies, but there are few women who ride like guys (Jill Kintner and Darcy Turenne make the list along with Tracey Hannah). I remember seeing little Tracey win Schladming in the girl's section of Earthed 5 and thinking "holy shit she rides like Mick!"... and that's a good thing, damnit! Just figured I'd go on a rant in a comments section that very few people will ever see, hahahahaha...

quotes YAyayaya! Fun to do a run or two with the ladies but I push way harder with les boys and improve faster (sometimes break myself more but I'm getting out of the injury phase....) Biking is the bomb. Our dh scene around here has like 10 girls which is pretty significant but I'm usually the only girl at the dirt jumps.... I think girls are just intimidated and afraid of looking stupid (everyone looks stupid on a bike sometimes.... fact) and I've gotten sooooo many dumb, useless comments about "I'm curious to see what a *girl* can ride here" and "Come on, even the *girl's* doing it!" by guys who never even pick up a shovel at a place I've been digging and riding at for years! pfffffffffft for shame.... ((But most dudes are really encouraging I'm just talking about a select few.)) To reach more women pinkbike's not really the best source. The ones of us on here are already into the sport and quite accustomed to the bonehead replies any women's articles on pinkbike receive! I liked this article though did not wholly agree with everything in it. I keep joking about Specialized designing the Femo-8 women's specific dh bike... mostly I'd just want it to be really light and pink. I feel like smoking guys on a hot pink bike would just be too fun.
