Women of OZ will soon host some of the nation’s top industry leaders and mountain biking coaches for a weekend of trail rides, workshops, panel discussions, entertainment, and cultural adventures. Bentonville – “The Mountain Biking Capital of the World” – will be the site of the Sunset Summit on Sept. 16-17 at the Momentary, a contemporary art space near downtown.

Women of all skill levels, even those who have never tried mountain biking before, are invited to the summit to learn the fundamentals, while developing confidence and building community. Seventy-five ambassadors – representing some of the most prominent professionals from the most successful mountain biking organizations – will work directly with attendees on learning to take life by the trail.

All ambassadors are recognizable names in the world of women’s mountain biking; they include keynote speakers, Anita Naidu and Lindsey Richter, and professionals such as Anneke Beerten, Caroline Washam, and Angi Weston.
