Providing exceptional cycling experiences to all, from beginners to expert riders.
Rencontrez la présidente, chef des opérations, Mélanie
Life partner of Ian Hughes, mother of two adorable teenagers and former teacher by trade, Melanie took the plunge with Bikeskills in the spring of 2021. With mountain biking being a part of her life, teaching being one of her strengths and the human contact being so rewarding, everything aligned for the next step with Bikeskills.
Certified PMBIA 2, Melanie loves coaching women of all levels.
More women, more inclusive, more accessible!
In April 2021, she set up the Bikemoms. It is a formula of four to six sessions of progression between girls. First in the spring to get the season off to a good start, in the summer to consolidate skills and in the fall for thematic clinics. The exclamations are always a moment of pleasure and kindness.
Here are 5 good reasons, according to Mélanie, for both morale and self-esteem, to take mountain biking classes with us…the girls.
1- Let yourself be guided
2- Self-esteem
3- Have role models
4- To create a network
5- Fun
You deserve the best coaches, regardless of your prior experience or skill level.
