About the project

A Diverse Series Of Events Aimed At Promoting Cycling, Community, Education & Good Times. We aim to  make bicycling for transportation accessible and fun to women of all backgrounds and inclinations through fun events that appeal to a wide variety of perspectives.

The Steps

Year two will build off all the learning from year 1 - including

  1. a sponsorship kit that needs only to be modified before being sent out 
  2. a comprehensive call of volunteers to build a responsive local mailing list
  3. fundraising beginning now for a practical view on event management
  4. RFP to bring in local partners to organize collectively
  5. solidify online promotion channels to increase awareness
  6. make editorial calendars for popular city publications

Why we‘re doing it

As an individual and as a designer; I am committed to making cycling for transportation an established and positive experience for everyone. The benefits of making bicycling a safe and fun form of everyday transportation has enormous benefits for human and environmental health. It's also a great way to build community in an increasingly digital era.
