Annijke Wade — Adaptive Mountain Biker on How to Build Confidence on the Trail

Annijke Wade shares what it means to get outdoors through adaptive mountain biking—from the mindset shifts that make “getting back out there” possible, to the practical realities of learning trail skills, finding community, and navigating accessibility in cycling spaces. IN THIS EPISODE, WE COVER * What adaptive mountain biking is (and the many ways “adaptive” can look) * Rebuilding confidence after a life change—and why progress isn’t linear * Getting started: choosing trails, pacing, and setting realistic expectations * The mental game: fear, risk, and learning to trust your body again * The role of community (and how to find the right people to ride with) * Accessibility on trails: what helps, what’s missing, and how riders can advocate * Why representation in outdoor sports matters—and how it impacts participation Subscribe to our newsletter: https://melaninmvp.com/subscribe Find outdoor organizations near you: https://melaninmvp.com/get-outside Find watch parties near you: https://melaninmvp.com/watch-parties Take our cross-training quiz: https://melaninmvp.com/cross-training-quiz This show is part of the Everyday Athlete Podcast Network: https://runtrimag.com/everyday-athlete-podcast-network/
