Why Women on Wheels?
We are a Community cycling hub for women. It is a service designed and led by women, delivering a range of cycling activities to get women back on a bike, or on to a bike for the first time, and to nurture the peer support and community connectedness that is helping women to keep cycling.
Our women's cycling hub is providing ongoing support and generating more opportunities for women and their families to get engaged with cycling and reap the benefits.
Women on Wheels empowers and enables women to overcome their barriers to taking up cycling - for transport, to improve their physical and mental health, and most importantly, for the pure joy of it.
