The Women's Festival of Cycling 2019

Posted on in Cycles News , Creative News, Outdoor News

The Women's Festival of Cycling, organised and spearheaded by Cycling UK, takes place throughout the UK in July.

womens festival of cycling 

Cycling UK calls on everybody, from cycling groups to clubs to individuals to register women-only rides as inspiration for women to cycle.

Even today, women are often underrepresented in the cycling industry and therefore women need the encouragement to start and continue cycling in a female-friendly environment supported by the cycles industry.

During the Women's Festival of Cycling, Cycling UK will be highlighting exceptional women who promote and encourage others to take part.

You can nominate your female role models this year and celebrate 100 Women in cycling. If you'd like to nominate someone click here!

The Women's Festival of Cycling event will include cycle rides and events all across the country. You can join the celebration and put on an even in July!
