The event took place ahead of the 11th round of the WHOOP UCI Mountain Bike World Series in the iconic Haute-Savoie venue of Les Gets, France and brought together a diverse group of women involved in the sport.
The event served as a unique opportunity for women to connect, share experiences, and foster a sense of community within the mountain biking industry. Attendees included representatives from various enduro, downhill and cross-country teams, such as riders, physiotherapists, chefs or mechanics. Additionally, members of the organization and media personnel covering the event were present, further enriching the networking opportunity.
This initiative highlights WBD's commitment to promoting diversity and inclusivity within the sports industry, particularly in mountain biking, which has seen significant growth and interest in recent years. The event provided a valuable opportunity for women to engage in meaningful conversations, exchange insights, and build professional relationships that can drive future collaborations and advancements in the sport.
