SHRED GIRLS HANGOUTS
Hey Shred Girls—
I hope you've been having an amazing summer vacation so far. I know mine has been jam-packed with bikes and time with friends... And working on book 2 of the Shred Girls series--I just got the illustrations and they are fantastic! And, of course, I've been LOVING all the pictures from you of reading Shred Girls: Lindsay's Joyride on the trailside or on vacation or in the backyard, and seeing it in bookstores. Summer reading has never been so rad!
Speaking of getting rad... Been riding on vacation, racing at Nationals or crushing a new obstacle? Tag us @shred.girls on Instagram in your adventures or if you snag a copy of the book, and we'll see you on the trails! Onward to what we've been loving lately...
XO,
Molly (and Lindsay, Ali and Jen!)
PS: My one ask—leave a Shred Girls review on Amazon!

QUOTE OF THE WEEK
"When I'm not feeling motivated, I slap on some Taylor Swift and there's no better way to up my mood. Shake It Off is a staple song. There are days when it's pouring rain and the last thing I want to do is ride my bike, so I put on Taylor Swift and by the time I get home, I'm dancing on my bike." -Abigail Mickey from Rally-UHC (Click for Her Motivation Secrets + More Cycling Tips )

ABOUT SHRED GIRLS: Lindsay's Joyride
An empowering new series from the cyclist who runs Shred-Girls.com is guaranteed to give readers an adrenaline rush--and the confidence girls gain from participating in sports. It's time to ride and save the day!
Lindsay can't wait to spend her summer break reading comics and watching superhero movies--until she finds out she'll be moving in with her weird older cousin Phoebe instead. And Phoebe has big plans for Lindsay: a BMX class at her bike park with cool-girl Jen and perfectionist Ali. Lindsay's summer of learning awesome BMX tricks with new friends and a new bike turns out to be more epic than any comic book--and it's all leading up to a jumping competition. But some of the biker boys don't think girls should be allowed to compete in BMX. Now it's up to Lindsay, Jen, and Ali to win the competition and prove that anyone can be great at BMX.
