BIKE WOMEN BIKE ADVENTURE CIRCLE

EVERYDAY WOMEN. BIG DREAMS. BOLD RIDES.

You don’t have to be fast.

You don’t have to ride far.

You don’t have to be an athlete.

You don’t need the perfect bike.

You just need to be a woman who wants to ride.

Bike Women Bike is a growing movement helping everyday women get back on their bikes, find their people, build confidence, and discover the joy and freedom of riding.

Your bike may have been waiting for you. Maybe you’ve been waiting for yourself.

Come ride with us.

YOU BELONG HERE

Maybe you used to ride and haven’t been on your bike in years.
Maybe your bike has been sitting in the garage.
Maybe you bought a bike and never really found your rhythm.
Maybe you want women to ride with.
Maybe you’re dreaming about a trail, a century, gravel, a first big adventure—or simply riding around the block without feeling intimidated.

Wherever you are, you belong here.

Everyone starts where they are. Everyone chooses their own path.

You ride your way.

THIS ISN’T A PERFORMANCE CLUB

Bike Women Bike isn’t about keeping up, proving yourself, or becoming a “real cyclist.”

No leaderboards.
No comparison.
No pressure to ride farther, faster, or more often.
No weekly attendance requirement.
No pressure to keep up with anyone else.
Start where you and you decide where you are going.
Every ride counts.
Ride your way.

Some women ride a few miles. Others take on big adventures. Some ride every week. Others ride when life allows.

We celebrate them all.

WHAT IS BIKE WOMEN BIKE?

Bike Women Bike is a movement and community created for everyday women who want to ride.

It’s a place to find people, build confidence, get back on the bike, stay connected, and pursue the riding dreams that matter to you.

We believe every woman deserves the opportunity to experience the joy, freedom, confidence, and connection that cycling can bring.

There isn’t one right way to be part of BWB. You can participate as much—or as little—as fits your life.

This is your ride. Your journey. Your community.

Introducing the BWB Rider Network

Imagine knowing there are women who ride in places all around you—and all around the world.

The BWB Rider Network is helping women discover one another, share their interests, exchange experiences, and make connections.

Through the Rider Map and Rider Directory, you can:

Discover women who are part of Bike Women Bike.
See where members are located.
Learn about their cycling interests and experiences.
Find women who enjoy the kinds of riding you do.
Start conversations and explore opportunities to connect.

Maybe you discover a woman who lives nearby.

Maybe you ride together. Maybe you share stories, ideas, and encouragement from a distance.

You decide what connection looks like for you.

Every woman who joins makes the network a little stronger. We envision a large network of women. Help fill the map!!

THE BIGGER VISION

You’re not just joining a community. You’re helping build one.

The Rider Map starts with a handful of women.

Those women find each other.

Connections become conversations.

Conversations can lead to meetups.

Meetups can lead to self-organized rides.

And, as the network grows, those connections can become Bike Women Bike chapters.

That’s the bigger vision: a grassroots network of women riding their way, in their own communities, connected by a shared movement.

We imagine a future with local chapters, shared adventures, women-led rides, gatherings, and opportunities for women to inspire one another.

We want to see more women on bikes—not because they have to ride a certain way, but because they discover what riding can make possible.

Every woman. Every ride. Every connection. It all matters.

RIDING DREAMS

What would you like your bike to help you do?

Maybe it’s something small. Maybe it’s something you’ve been dreaming about for years.

Get back on your bike.
Learn to ride as an adult.
Build confidence riding on the road or trails or gravel or hills.
Find women to ride with.
Take on a ride you never thought you could do.
Plan a comeback ride.
Explore a new trail or destination.
Ride your dream.

You don’t have to know the answer today.

Sometimes the first step is simply getting back on the bike.

Start where you are. Dream about where you want to go.

Choose your ride. Choose your pace. Celebrate being on a bike.

DONNA’S STORY — WHY BWB EXISTS

I’ve stopped riding more times than I can count.

I never stopped being a rider. The bike just waited.

There have been seasons when life pulled me away from the bike—relationships, work, motherhood, loss, and all the other things life asks of us.

And there have been seasons when the bike brought me back to myself.

I know what it feels like to look at a bike and wonder if you still belong on it.

I also know what can happen when you get back on.

I’ve loved biking for as long as I can remember. I’ve experienced the freedom of long rides, the challenge of big adventures, and the friendships that grow along the way. I’ve also experienced the joy of watching someone discover that they really can ride.

Over the years, I saw women hesitating to ride. Women who weren’t sure they still could. Women wondering if they could balance, whether they were fit enough, or whether they belonged in the cycling world.

I wanted to create a space where women could hear a different message.

YES! YOU CAN!

You don’t have to be an athlete. You don’t have to be fast. You don’t have to prove anything.

You just need a place to start, encouragement along the way, and the freedom to ride your own ride.

That’s why Bike Women Bike exists—for women finding their way to the bike, finding their way back to the bike, and finding their next adventure on it.

And I believe we’re just getting started.

— Donna

YOU DON’T HAVE TO DO IT ALL

You don’t have to join everything.

You don’t have to ride every event.

You don’t have to be active every week.

You don’t have to have a big goal or a grand adventure planned.

Start where you are. Choose what fits. Take the next step when you’re ready.

Bike Women Bike will be here.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do I have to be an experienced cyclist?

No. BWB is for women at many different points in their riding journey—including women who haven’t ridden in years and women who have never ridden.

The Adventure Circle also provides access to our Teach Yourself to Ride (paid) course.

What if I’m nervous about getting back on my bike?

Especially you. That is one of the reasons BWB exists.

Start small, choose your own pace, and use the resources and community when you want support.

Do I need an expensive or perfect bike?

No. Start with the bike you have. If you need help getting it ready to ride, a good local bike shop can help. I believe the best bike; is the bike you love to ride.

What if I’m not very fit?

That’s okay. BWB is not about competition or performance culture. Choose a distance and pace that works for you. Everyone starts where they are and chooses the right path for them, right now. And we celebrate it with you!!

What if I haven’t ridden in years?

Especially you. You don’t need to prove anything before you come back. Start where you are. We love seeing women finding their bike and getting back on it.

Do I have to ride with other women?

No. BWB is a virtual community. You can ride solo, connect online, find women nearby, or self-organize with other riders.

You decide what connection looks like for you.

What’s the difference between the free BWB community and Adventure Circle?

The free Facebook community is where the broader Bike Women Bike movement comes together. It’s a place for inspiration, stories, conversations, challenges, events, and encouragement.

Adventure Circle is the community inside BWB that goes deeper. It offers access to the Rider Network, Map and Directory, Campfires, Live Bike Chats, Rider Pathways, and additional opportunities for connection and participation.

You can absolutely be part of Bike Women Bike without joining Adventure Circle.

Is Adventure Circle required?

No. The free BWB community is a great place to start. Adventure Circle is for women who want a deeper layer of connection and live community.

How much does Adventure Circle cost?

Adventure Circle is $7 per month. You can cancel anytime.

How does the Rider Map work?

Adventure Circle members can add themselves to the BWB Rider Map and share information in the Rider Directory.

The Skool map places your pin approximately 10 miles from your actual location. You can move it farther away for additional privacy.

Can I find women to ride with?

That’s one of the goals of the Rider Network! You can discover women who are part of BWB, learn about their interests, and reach out to make connections.

Whether you find someone nearby or connect with a woman across the world, you decide what happens next.

Members may organize their own rides and meetups. These are self-organized by participants and are not sponsored or led by Bike Women Bike.

Is this a race or fitness group?

No. Some members ride a few miles, some ride fifty+ miles. Both get celebrated—loudly!

Some participate in organized rides and races. Others don’t. It’s all good.

Ride YOUR way!

What if I can’t make the live calls?

Then you miss a call, not the community. Participate when you can. There is no attendance requirement or pressure to show up every week.

The Circle fits around your life, not the other way around.

Is Bike Women Bike only for women who live in the United States?

No. Bike Women Bike is a growing community of women from different places around the world. Wherever you live, there’s room for you here.

Is this a bike repair course?

Bike Chats provide opportunities to ask questions and share knowledge about bikes, equipment, maintenance, and riding. Additional learning resources are being developed.

Inside the Adventure Circle there is a Bike Tech Classroom with basic, basic keep your bike rolling information.

Adventure Circle is primarily a community for connection, shared experiences, and discovering new adventures—not a comprehensive bike mechanic training program.

THE BIKE IS STILL WAITING

Maybe your bike has been waiting.

Maybe you’ve been waiting.

Maybe there’s a ride you’ve been dreaming about.

Whatever brought you here, you don’t have to figure it all out today.

Start where you are.

Ride your way.

Celebrate every mile, every moment, and every new possibility.

WE’RE BUILDING SOMETHING BIGGER.

More women on bikes. More opportunities. More impact.

Bike Women Bike started with a simple belief: every woman deserves the opportunity to experience the joy, freedom, confidence, and connection that cycling can bring.

But our vision goes far beyond building an online community.

We want to help create a world where more women and girls have access to bicycles, opportunities to ride, supportive communities, and the confidence to pursue their own adventures.

WE HAVE SOME WILD IDEAS.

And we’re not afraid to dream big.

Imagine what we could create together:

BIKE WOMEN BIKE CAMP

A multi-day gathering where women come together to ride, learn, explore, make friends, and celebrate cycling. Road, gravel, mountain biking, rail trails—different rides for different women, all in one welcoming place.

THE BWB FILM FESTIVAL

A celebration of films and stories created by women about women and their bikes. Everyday riders, extraordinary journeys, first rides, comebacks, challenges, and adventures worth sharing.

THE WOMEN’S RIGHTS HISTORY BIKE TOUR

A journey connecting women’s history with the freedom and possibilities of cycling. A ride, a collection of women’s stories, a book, and perhaps even a documentary that brings those stories to life.

MORE WOMEN-LED RIDES AND ADVENTURES

Local chapters, regional gatherings, destination rides, shared adventures, and opportunities for women to connect and ride together.

These are big ideas. Some are still dreams taking shape. Others are beginning to move toward reality. We intend to develop them thoughtfully, with women, partners, and communities who share the vision.

YOUR MEMBERSHIP HELPS MOVE THAT VISION FORWARD.

When you join Adventure Circle, you’re doing more than becoming part of a cycling network.

Your membership helps fund the growth and development of Bike Women Bike—building the Rider Network, creating programs and resources, bringing women together, and expanding opportunities to participate.

And we’re dreaming bigger.

As Bike Women Bike grows, we want to extend that impact beyond our own community by supporting organizations and initiatives that help more women and girls get on bikes.

Our future vision includes:

Girls on Bikes: Supporting programs that introduce girls to cycling and help them develop confidence, independence, and a love of riding.
World Bicycle Relief: Supporting efforts to expand access to bicycles for people whose lives and opportunities can be transformed by reliable transportation.
More Women on Bikes: Supporting initiatives and programs that help more women discover cycling and make riding part of their lives.
Scholarships for BWB Programs: When we generate more revenue, we can create scholarships and make Bike Women Bike even more accessible.

WHERE WE ARE TODAY. WHERE WE’RE GOING TOMORROW.

We’re in the building stage. Today, membership revenue helps support the development and operation of Bike Women Bike and Adventure Circle.

As our membership and resources grow, we want to create a dedicated impact initiative that supports organizations and programs getting more women and girls on bikes.

We also envision sharing an annual Bike Women Bike Impact Report—celebrating the women reached, connections made, programs developed, experiences created, and contributions our growing community makes possible.

We want our members to see what we’re building together and the difference their participation helps create.

YOUR MEMBERSHIP. OUR MOVEMENT. A BIGGER IMPACT.

One woman gets on a bike. She inspires another. A community grows. Ideas become experiences. Opportunities open. And the impact keeps moving.

We don’t know exactly where all these WILD ideas will take us.

That’s part of the adventure.

Everyday Women. Big Dreams. Bold Rides. More Women on Bikes.
