The stoke is real.
The stoke is real.
The feeling of conquering a gnarly rock garden.
Slaying a sweet berm.
Holding steady on a sketchy skinny.
Flying down the trail on your partner’s wheel.
Cheering your riding buddy as they attempt a nemesis feature.
That’s the stoke of mountain biking. And we’re here to help you experience it to its fullest.
The Oxford English Dictionary’s definition of stoke— “to encourage or incite”—is not lost on us.
Stöke MTB was founded in 2021 by Lisa Martens and Leigh Kramarczuk, a.k.a. the Stöke Sisters.
As a Minneapolis-based, women-owned mountain biking skills instruction provider, we offer coaching to all riders, not only to those who identify as women.
