Women Bike PHL

In Philadelphia, only one third of all bicyclists are women. This is better than the national average, but still shows that barriers exist to women bicycling. Women Bike PHL aims to shrink the gender gap in bicycling, making riding a bicycle more fun and feasible for Philadelphia women of all ages and backgrounds.

The Women Bike PHL community is growing rapidly. Here are resources to get involved. Wondering if bicycling is for you? Women of all backgrounds ride for all sorts of reasons in and around Philly. Meet some of them in our profiles series at the bottom and learn what got them into bicycling and how it fits into, and enriches, their lives.
