"Every year on World Car Free Day, women will be on the streets with their bikes to show that everyone can ride a bike, and it is even possible to cycle with a fancy dress. Woman’s visibility in urban spaces is key to claim the right to the city. Cycling is a particularly powerful way for women to become visible in the society and a complete new way to interact with the city. Fancy Women Bike Ride is an event for women, organized by women to remember the liberating joy of cycling and to inspire more women to use bicycle in the cities."
***
We expect the ride will last about 25 mins at a relaxed pace.
- Dress code: Fancy, fierce, fabulous (whatever makes you feel beautiful, strong and great!)
- Decorate your bicycle, pose for the cameras and take selfies, greet & smile at people during the ride.
- Bring your friends, mothers, aunties and sisters and be prepared for a magical afternoon.
No registration required.
Guys can join too, so long as they ride with us, not ahead of us.
Children are welcome so long as they are capable of riding a bike (or being an encouraging passenger!).
