In 2026, membership continues to be the heart of our community, giving women access to rides, education, and connection all season long. Here’s what you can expect when you become a CQ member…

Every season, we talk to women who are curious about our group programs. And while we would love to support everyone, the truth is: Our programs aren’t for everyone but…

If you’re looking to improve your mountain biking skills, you’ve probably asked yourself: Should I join a group program… or just sign up for a 1-day clinic?

Both are valuable. But they serve different outcomes.

Here’s a clear breakdown…

Let’s start with honesty:

No. You don’t need a group program to learn how to mountain bike.

You can absolutely teach yourself, but….

Hiring a health coach isn’t about getting a meal plan and a workout PDF. It’s about getting a partner in your growth.

Mountain biking is equal parts exhilarating, empowering, and let’s be honest, a little intimidating when you’re new. The good news? Many beginner mistakes are completely avoidable with a little guidance.

If you’ve been riding or training for years, chances are you’ve earned the label “advanced.” You’re competent, experienced, and capable of handling big days on the bike. But being advanced doesn’t mean you’re done learning.

For many women, shorter days and busier schedules make training feel complicated instead of empowering. Suddenly you’re juggling strength workouts, riding when you can, trying to recover, and wondering if any of it is actually helping. But you don’t need more workouts this winter, you need a simpler plan.

We say we want to grow. We say we want to get stronger, more confident, more consistent…But the second discomfort shows up? We interpret it as a sign something is wrong, instead of what it actually is: a sign we’re on the right track.

Every year, winter asks us to slow down.
But most of us… don’t. We hustle. We keep filling the calendar, answering the emails, saying yes to one more thing because we’re used to moving fast. Even when our bodies are whispering, Not right now. Not like this.

2025 was overflowing with connection, growth, challenge, community, and so many miles of dirt. Here’s a look back at everything we accomplished together…

So this season, I’m saying yes to it. Loudly. Repeatedly. Without apology. And I want to share what that actually looks like, not in a Pinterest-perfect way, but in a real-human-with-a-full-life way.

We all know change isn’t easy. Whether you’re trying to build strength, create better habits, or stay motivated when the weather turns cold, doing it alone can feel like an uphill climb.

When we talk about training, we talk about strength, endurance, and consistency. But rest? That one tends to get brushed aside or worse, seen as weakness. The truth is, rest isn’t the absence of effort: it’s an essential part of growth.

We talk a lot about balance, that elusive idea that if we could just juggle everything right, life would finally feel calm, steady, and easy.

When the temps drop and the trails turn muddy (or frozen solid), it’s easy to hang up your helmet and go into hibernation mode. But winter doesn’t have to mean the end of your mountain biking season.

what happens when the temperatures drop, the trails get slick, and the daylight hours shrink? Do we just hang up our bikes until spring? Not a chance. The off-season is where the magic happens.

We live in a world where answers are just a few keystrokes away. Ask ChatGPT for a nutrition plan, and it will happily spit out a neat list of meals, calorie targets, and macro breakdowns. Sounds great, right? However, there’s a lot more to consider when creating a nutrition plan:

Nothing ruins a good ride faster than a preventable mechanical issue, or worse, an injury. The good news? You don’t need to be a mechanic to keep yourself (and your bike) safe. A quick pre-ride safety check takes just a couple of minutes and can save you a lot of frustration on the trail.

When the days get shorter, the air turns crisp, and trails start to collect snow, it’s tempting to hang up your bike and hibernate until spring. But here’s the secret most strong riders know: winter isn’t the “off-season”, it’s the building season.
