The Women’s Ride Summer Series 2022, presented by Norway Savings Bank, is back for the second year!
Every other Wednesday, we will be a leading a series of free, laid-back women’s group rides. Centering all FTWN-B—femme, transgender, women, non-binary, and anyone else who identifies as a woman—these 6-14 mile rides are laid back, featuring some of the most rideable road and trail routes in the surrounding Portland area.
What do our group rides entail? The group will always stick together, and have a leader and a sweep. These are not club rides! They are designed for women+ new-ish to group rides, or those who just like to take in the sights while biking. Expect light to rolling hills only, and travel at about 10 mph. Each ride will take about 1.5 to 2 hours to complete.
Bikes and helmets are required, and please wear closed-toed shoes. With the days getting shorter, you’ll also need front and rear lights on your bike, and we encourage you to dress “bright & tight.”
Registration is free but space is limited! Click a ride to find out more information about the route and to sign up.
