mizzi

wow, my friend, german bmx flatland rider julia preuss, just sent me a pic of something she made:



isn't that amazing? thanks a lot, jule! :) you rule!



also, i just had a look into the site statistics for the mizzi site and i have to say, i'm rather content :D
the blog has about 300 visitors each month from nearly all regions of the world.
not bad! i never thought it would turn out this good.

i hope my blog helps other girls to see that sports are for everyone, that it's fun to try something new, that we are just as dedicated as guys are and that sticking with something pays of in one way or another.

i want to keep on supporting all the courageous girls out there who pave the way for all of us!


but in the end - it's all about the fun :)



thanks to all blog readers and female shredders out there!
keep on riding!

the german blog maedchenmannschaft has just put an interview with me about my blogging experience online, of course the most of it is about mizzi.

check it out (german only, sorry)! thanks to maedchenmannschaft!

what does mizzi mean and stand for?
i came across an article where a woman from austria was mentioned. her name was mitzi albl and she was a founding member of the ladies bicycle club graz (styria), which was founded in 1839 and was the first bicycle club for ladies in europe.
these women were pioneers and helped pave the way for women in a lot of sports. that's how the name mizzi originated.


what is mizzi about?
mizzi is about women in extreme sports (bmx, skateboarding, snowboarding, surfing, wakeboarding, fmx and so on). i want to encourage other girls and women to also start or keep on riding, by posting news & stories about the events in the female extreme sports world.
other than that.. it's hella fun.
i also try to organize little jams in austria from time to time to keep in touch with others. we'll see what will come next!

who runs this?
my name is stephi, i'm currently 26 years old, i enjoy riding bmx and snowboard. i also like wakeboarding and windsurfing and i'm interested in skateboarding and fmx.
i live in vienna, austria (europe). that's also why i'm gonna post some austrian news from time to time.
i ran a german blog previously, it was called "damenrad - female 2rad madness".

if you want to contact me, just post a comment somewhere.
