Shred Girls: Ali's Rocky Ride

By Molly Hurford

Come along for a wild ride as the Shred Girls take on mountain biking! Readers are sure to feel like part of the team in this empowering read that features illustrations and training logs!

In the follow-up to LINDSAY'S JOYRIDE, the Shred Girls reunite at Ali's home for a mountain-biking training trip that builds up to an elite competition! Even though Ali grew up on the mountain biking with her professional-biker older brothers, she's anxious. Her brothers always make her feel like she's not talented enough. Could they be right? She'll just have to find out.

But it'll be hard to focus on training when Jen, Lindsay, and Lindsay's awesome older cousin Phoebe come to stay for two weeks. Ali's never had friends who are girls before, and now they're jumping into a long-term sleepover! Well, she's not sure that ultra-feminine Jen is actually her friend . . . yet. Ali's about to get a crash course on friendship!

With everything going on, Ali's got a rocky road ahead--but she has the right bike for this ride!

Molly Hurford

Molly Hurford is the founder of Strong Girl Publishing and has been called a chronic book writer by her friends. She's a journalist by trade, writing and speaking about all things cycling, running, nutrition and movement-related. She's the author of multiple books including 'Fuel Your Ride' and the Shred Girls series. When not actually outside, she's probably writing about being outside and healthy habits of athletes and interviewing world-class athletes and scientists for The Consummate Athlete podcast and website. She runs and rides in Ontario, where she lives with Peter, her husband, and DW, her mini-dachshund, who she definitely used as a character in the Shred Girls books. She's a little obsessed with getting people-especially girls-psyched on adventure and being outside. Those passions combined are what prompted her to start Strong Girl Publishing, in order to reach more young girls and help them find and stay in sports and outdoor adventuring.
