Gale Dahlager started riding mountain bikes to stay in shape for skiing. After 3yrs of racing cross country, she discovered downhill racing which proved to be much more her forte. Gale raced 9yrs at the pro level for downhill, dual slalom and mountain cross, making the US National team in ‘03 & ‘04 for World Championships, before retiring last year. She is still active in the freeride and dirt jumping scene, becoming one of the few women to land back flips on a mountain bike. Gale continues her quest to get more women involved in mountain biking, especially in the dirt jump/freeride scene, and to help all women realize that when any one of us achieves something, we are all better because of it.
