Welcome to Ladies of the Loam!
The very first all-women's mountain bike enduro and festival in California!​
Get ready to ride, race, and connect with your fellow women mountain bikers! This spring, the Ladies of the Loam Festival is coming to Everstoke Mountain Bike Park, nestled in the heart of California's prime mountain bike country—the breathtaking Lost Sierra.
​
This unique event is all about welcoming women riders of all levels, from beginners to seasoned competitors. Whether you're challenging yourself to your first race or pushing for the podium, there’s something for everyone. The enduro race format is perfect for racing at your own pace, with opportunities to regroup after each run for some well-earned high fives and camaraderie.
​
But it’s not just about the race! This multi-day festival blends riding, racing, and community:
-
Beginner-Friendly Programming: We’re excited to introduce newcomers to mountain biking in a supportive and fun environment.
-
Competitive Racing Opportunities: For those looking to push themselves, the festival offers a platform to compete at a higher level.
-
Off-the-Bike Connections: With onsite camping and non-racing activities, there’s plenty of time to relax, meet fellow riders, and soak in the weekend vibes.
-
Fun Trails, Great Company: Whether you're on the bike or off, the trails and community spirit will make this an unforgettable event.
