Are you ready to tackle Peaks Challenge?
Not sure if you're ready to tackle Peaks Challenge? We chatted to 12 hour wave leader Crossy about his motivation and what keeps him coming back for more.
A group of riders from our Women's Community recently caught up for a good old fashion descending skills session. Check out the key takeaways for going downhill at Peaks.
A Peaks Challenge ride is gruelling – you need to keep yourself fuelled to tackle the climbs and power through the kilometres.

Women's Community
At Bicycle Network, we’re committed to getting more women riding and addressing the gender imbalance in bike riding. In the lead up to Peaks Challenge 2022 we will have tailored events and support for women who are keen to have a crack at the event but are not sure where to start, or women who are looking for like-minded riders.
