Roam Fest is the world’s first and largest bike festival for women and femmes. It’s called a festival but it feels more like a party, where you can arrive solo but you end up making friends. The vibes are high, the inclusiveness is stellar, and the atmosphere is so welcoming and full of love. Plus, there are BIKES!

Lastly, it’s held in Fruita, Colorado, which is a beautiful desert. There are a variety of trails to choose from, all catering to any skill level.

There are not only the event vendors, but there is a chance to demo mountain bikes (including e-bikes), and you get a dinner included every night.

I cannot recommend Roam Fest enough. In this episode, I talk alllll about why you should go to the next one in 2025 (it’s slated for September 19-21). I hope to see you there!
