Ready to ride stronger, build confidence, and have a whole lot of fun doing it?
Join us for an MTB Girls Ride Club experience, an official MTB Girls Magazine event, set in the stunning landscape of Fort Ord National Monument in Monterey, California—one of the most sought-after mountain bike trail systems on the Central Coast.
This is more than just a ride. It’s a powerful opportunity to step into a stronger, more confident version of yourself on and off the bike.
Ride Monterey’s Most Inspiring Trails
The Fort Ord National Monument offers world-class recreation for riders of all levels. With over 86 miles of trails across 7,200 acres, this iconic destination features everything from narrow singletrack winding through grassland hills to wide, flowing trails through oak woodlands and maritime chaparral.
It’s the perfect setting to:
- Build skills on approachable terrain
- Gain confidence on descents and climbs
- Ride through wide-open, breathtaking coastal views
Whether you’re new to mountain biking or ready to level up, Fort Ord provides the ideal environment for growth.

This experience is specifically designed for beginner to intermediate women riders who are ready to:
- Build strength and endurance
- Improve fitness and technique
- Gain real confidence on the bike
- Ride in a supportive, welcoming environment
You’ll ride alongside like-minded women who are all on the same journey—learning, progressing, and supporting each other every step of the way.
