Dirt Maidens, born from the inspiration of a women's mountain bike race in Canada, has become a vibrant force in Jindabyne, NSW. Conceived by a dedicated group of female riders who believed in providing women with the opportunity to experience the thrill of a mountain bike race, Dirt Maidens is more than an event—it's a celebration of community and camaraderie.

The founding team, comprised of local riders, club members, volunteers, and friends from afar, worked tirelessly to create a fun, beginner-friendly race with a touch of challenge. What emerged was an event enveloped in a friendly and supportive environment, reflecting the spirit of the Dirt Maidens community.

Over the years, the Dirt Maidens team has evolved, with each dedicated individual contributing to the success of the event and its impact on the mountain biking community. While the primary focus at Dirt Maidens currently revolves around recommencing skills clinics at Stromlo Forest Park in Canberra, there are exciting plans for a membership option and the imminent return of the signature event in the near future.

To all the riders, volunteers, and supporters who have made Dirt Maidens what it is today, a heartfelt thank you. Join us for skills clinics, keep an eye out for upcoming events, and connect with us on social media. Dirt Maidens is not just an event; it's a community that listens and evolves based on the desires of its members. We want to hear your thoughts so we can continue offering more of what you want in the world of women's mountain biking!
