Sisters of Send Weekend 2020 – Wales’ first women’s MTB festival!

The Sisters of Send collective is excited to announce the launch of Wales’ first women’s MTB festival, the Sisters of Send Weekend 2020. Taking place in the heart of the Afan Valley, the two-day festival is designed to help inspire and nurture sisterhood in MTB while having a bloody good time riding bikes, making friends and taking part in some brilliant events. 

There will be coaching and guiding sessions running throughout the weekend with private use of the legendary Afan bike park, a bespoke skills area, an air bag, an epic 4X track and even the private use of some of the local singletrack. 

In addition to this, brands such as crankbrothers, Ergon, Juliana, Trek, Marin, Fenwicks, Smith and ION will be showcasing their wares in the Event Village, joined by local businesses and non-profits like Trash Free Trails and the Afan Valley Trail Volunteers.

No genre of biking is turned down, though she is happiest when at the top of a mountain with a wild descent ahead of her. If you ever want a chat about concussion recovery, dealing with a Womb of Doom or how best to fuel an endurance XC race, she's the one to email.
