In partnership with Beicio Cymru and MB Wales, we’re working to establish Wales as a global leader for gender inclusive mountain biking. As part of this work, we’re showcasing amazing initiatives and activities across Wales that empower and support women+ in mountain biking.
Cardiff School of Rocks is a woman-led offroad cycling group that builds skill, confidence and community.
Led by Jess, Cardiff School of Rocks offers:
👉 Women-only 6 week terms for developing skills and confidence in a supportive environment.
👉 Regular weekend rides and bikepacking trips open to all.
👉 Café events with inspirational women speaking on various topics such as route planning, bikepacking, nutrition, and more – plus adventure stories like backpacking through Africa! 🌍These events are not only inclusive, inspiring and educational, but also raise money for charity.
With 140 members, it’s more than an offroad cycling group – it’s a supportive community that creates lasting friendships.
