“Women are an ‘indicator species’ for a healthy cycling ecosystem in your community… If you see a majority of men riding on your streets, those streets are not truly bike-friendly. I work for more women on bikes because when I see lots of women on bikes, I know our streets work for everyone.†Read more about women, cycling and safety in this article from the California Bicycle Coalition.
Let us know how you think Provo can encourage women to ride their bikes more!
And check out the Provo Bicycle Collective, and the Provo Bicycle Committee facebook pages for lots of family friendly rides this spring!
