    This. This is what it is all about right here. 10 minutes of holding back tears of joy that you are doing something this amazing. Building a community and supporting a generation is so much more inspiring that ultra-endurance races, and I can barely get enough of watching your ultra-ride videos.

    How great is this! This needs to be a nationwide program. Give a girl a little bit of confidence and look out world.

    That’s amazing! This opportunity is a great self-esteem and confidence booster for these kids. I feel this fills a spot where some kids don’t fit in to other school sports. You guys are doing a great thing!

    As a teacher and with a passion for riding bikes and adventure, I wish they had this program available for my girls here in CT. Young girls NEED this!

      Help start a program with some fellow mentors! Lael put together some concepts to help guide new programs: theradavist.com/2020/04/anchorage-grit-girls-riding-into-tomorrow/

    That's a really great program for the young generation with riding a bike. That kind of adventure needs to provide to the other country for the realize what is sports.

    Lael and Cait are amazing - just loved Cait when her face turned all Red talking "about the weird 30 something ladies taking them on the bike ride"

    I’m proud to have started the first youth mountain biking program for kids in Anchorage; through the SPYDER program. It was great!

    What a great project. The next step is a brisk ride out to Eureka Lodge and back...and do it with power meters.
    always find it interesting when i watch videos and see things or places i recognize.

      we've been running Anchorage GRIT for three years. Previous girls are invited to come back as student mentors. It's amazing to see them grow up and take leadership roles.
