According to a survey by sustrans less than 1 in 10 women cycle more than once a month.
It just seems so nuts. I can’t imagine how grim it must be not to be a cyclist and am making it my quest to get more girls out on bikes. It’s not a competition for toughness versus the gents its just that its such a brilliant way to get from A to B and everywhere in between.
