about tess
I've been into mountain biking since 2014. My husband and several of our friends were mountain bikers and when the FOMO became too much to bear, I decided to start riding too.
Mountain biking hasn't come easily to me. I'm not a natural and I came to this sport with a pretty low "fear ceiling." Time and some carefully practiced skills have helped me push my limits as a rider. The more my riding improves, the bigger the grin on my face as I blaze down the singletrack. I've come a long way and I've got a long way to go but I'm not afraid to get out there and get dusty.
I love riding with the guys and I do plenty of it, but there's something special about hitting the trails with other women. Connecting with other female mountain bikers is inspiring, confidence building and fun. I started Dusty Betty as a way to connect with other female riders and hopefully inspire more women to get into the sport. If I can do it, you can do it!
I travel the country full time with my husband, Steve, and our dog, Fender. We live in an Airstream travel trailer and follow the seasons so we can ride year round.
