Testimonial
Would recommend it to anyone!
Shred sister is a company I idol. Audrey as created something special and being in her course for the day was Inspiring. It takes out the intimidation the sport has, and gives you an awesome confidence. I’ve done two courses and both instructors adapted to my needs and was concerned about what I wanted to get out of the courses. And bring girls together in biking I think is just rad.

I learned so much during the clinic I could not apply everything all at once, but I am confident it will all make sense within a few rides and that I will kick ass on the jumps really soon. It was also a great timing riding the hill with a group of rad ladies! Thanks Audrey.

It’s always fun joining Shred Sisters classes! I’ve doing courses every couple years and progressing each time! The coaches are very knowledgeable and fun to ride with. The new bike park in Golden is the ultimate learning environment.
