CycloFemme Rides are part of an international movement based on the belief that strong communities are built around strong women. That being on a bike brings us closer to our community, to nature, and to ourselves. That from action comes change. That our hope, courage, and strength is amplified when we unite. https://cyclofemme.com/?v=3e8d115eb4b3
These self-led bike rides around the globe unite riders, regardless of gender, age, ethnicity or bicycle preference.
ROUTE: Ride north across the Skipping Stone Bridge heading west along the Bow River Pathway paralleling Memorial Dr heading towards Kensington, past Poppy Plaza, crossing over Memorial Dr via the overpass next to Girl Guides of Canada into West Hillhurst where we will enjoy an ice cream at Amato Gelato. There will be a short on-road riding section at the end of the ride.
