World Ride’s purpose

We believe in the transformative skills that can be learned from mountain biking. Unfortunately, there are barriers to women across the world from learning the sport. World Ride is a nonprofit that works to remove those barriers and empower women globally through mountain biking. We do this by:

  • Raising money to establish bike and gear libraries in Nepal, Guatemala, Peru, Botswana, and Lesotho
  • Supporting training sessions to help women develop mountain biking and guiding skills
  • Employing local women to lead our mountain biking tours
  • Promoting visibility of women in the sport of mountain biking by supporting race goals

Through mountain biking, you are challenged to overcome fears, gain courage, and build determination. This earned confidence can translate into other areas of your life, and the lives of the women we work with.

Being part of a World Ride trip to Peru was unlike anything else I’ve ever experienced, and not only because we were riding the epic janky terrain that is the Andes! The riding was both challenging and rewarding, the views were AMAZING, and the entire group of riders that were on the trip were awesome to hang out with. The best part is that when you sign up for a World Ride trip, you’re directly contributing to their mission to train new guides and increase accessibility to mountain biking for women in underserved countries — too good!
