OUR STORY

VeloFemmes began in the spring of 2013 when a group of women came together with the goal of sharing a love of bicycles and inspiring other women to ride bikes.

 

Since then, we have held all kinds of events, from group rides to conversation nights to bike mechanics workshop nights. 

 

Since cycling tends to be a male-dominated activity in the U.S., VeloFemmes focuses on getting more women on bikes. Our main goal is to have people see us out in the community and say, "Hey, that looks like fun! I could do that!" In getting women together and riding our bicycles, we hope to inspire more women (and more people in general) to get out and explore their communities by bike. We hope VeloFemmes continues to be a safe space where women can meet new friends and feel supported as they try a new way to get around.
