Bike New York is proud to launch our newest initiative, which aims to get more women/trans/femme New Yorkers riding safely and confidently on the city streets.

Gear Femmes matches aspiring bike commuters with experienced cyclists who will literally show them the way—with techniques and route selection, making riding to work as fun as it is productive. Through bike education classes, specialized instruction, and community events, aspiring commuters develop their bike commuting skills with support from the Gear Femmes community. Click here to learn more about how you can get involved.

Come out and celebrate the launch of Gear Femmes and meet other women/trans/femme cyclists at our Kick-off Happy Hour on Wednesday, April 12 from 6:30 – 8:30 PM at Sidewalk Cafe, 94 Avenue A, New York, New York.
