Friends on bikes
Friends on bikes, Portland, Oregon, is a bicycle community for women of color. The aim of the community is to promote greater diversity on the bicycling scene, and breaking white-male cyclist stereotypes. Women of color are especially encouraged to join because of their general absence on the bicycle paths and in the cycling media. Efforts are focused primarily on women/trans/femme/non-binary people of color, but all women are welcomed. All kinds of bike riding are encouraged, from commuting to work to riding just for fun. Friends on Bikes also hosts several events, workshops, and rides to promote biking.
