Photo credit: @ikrisphoto Our next MTB Girls Magazine cover girl for May is Gabby Huffman. Marinduro, women’s enduro racing, mountain biking, and determination, this is the story of what happens when preparation, resilience, and heart all come together on race day. From the pressure of the start line to the emotion of crossing the finish tape, Gabby Huffman’s Marinduro story captures the grit, focus, and passion it takes to compete at a high level while continuing to inspire the next generation of women in mountain biking.
This cover story goes beyond race results. It’s about community, progression, overcoming challenges, and the mindset of an athlete who keeps showing up, pushing harder, and proving what’s possible in the sport.

Let’s REWIND! ⏪ We’ve heard a bunch of you say that Marinduro 2026 was the best day of the year … and we couldn’t agree more! 🔥
Drop us a comment about what made it so great!! 🤘⬇️
Marinduro 2026 was the BEST YEAR YET! ✨
With 459 racers on the start list, we officially became the biggest enduro race in California. Hero dirt, sunshine, and endless stoke made this year one to remember 🌞
Huge thank you to the nearly 100 volunteers, 25 incredible sponsors, Friends of Tamarancho, and the Boy Scouts of America for making this event possible. These trails and this community are what make Marinduro so special 🤘
Racer photos are coming soon! Our 6 volunteer photographers are sorting through thousands of images, so stay tuned, we will announce when they are live! 📸

Sending the legendary Tamarancho Drop on Stage 6 of the Marinduro 2026!
There is nothing like the energy of a cheering crowd to push you through the final stages of a race. This was a massive highlight from my run in the eMTB Expert Pro category.
This was my first time racing the Marinduro, and Stage 6 at Tamarancho absolutely delivered the goods! 🚵♂️⚡️ Such an incredible experience taking on these trails under race pressure.
