Hot On Your Heels is a women’s only enduro style race followed by an amazing after party. Healthy Bodies, Healthy Minds, a mentoring program that encourages physical activity, healthy eating and the development of a positive self image among young girls, run by Big Brothers Big Sisters of Squamish. What the heck does that mean? An enduro race typically consists of 3-5 timed stages which take place
on technical, generally descending terrain. These stages are linked by predominantly ascending connecting stages. Although a rider’s specific performance on the physically demanding connecting stages does not always affect her result, the connections are often associated with a time-cut off (i.e. a latest permitted arrival at the summit of the next special stage). Due to this eclectic combination of attributes, enduro racing is increasingly recognised as the truest test of the all-round mountain biker. So how is the Hot On Your Heels going to work? Full course details are still being tweaked, stay tuned!! In the end, it’s all about having a fun day out with other fantastic ladies and giving back to young girls in Squamish. Volunteers – Because this is so much more than just a bike race…
Sorry ladies, we’re not interested in help from the female side. MALE VOLUNTEERS ONLY! We want to make sure all of our ladies are well taken care of so we will have a handful of lucky men assisting our riders throughout the day. There will be limited volunteer positions available, we'll let you know when we start the auditions ;)

The Party
There aren’t too many opportunities for the ladies to break out their heels in Squamish but this is one of them! Dust off those dresses ladies and let’s party! This is so much more than a bike ‘race’, it is about having fun with your friends, making new friends and embracing the amount of women who love to mountain bike! Please do not be intimidated to sign up, you will have an amazing time and I guarantee a few laughs along the way.
