Detailed description (English): Fancy Women Bike Ride - 17 September 2023
This is an annual ride of women reclaiming the streets to celebrate the freedom that comes with cycling. It is a short ride and the dress code is ‘Fancy’. We are celebrating 11 years of Fancy Women Bike Rides worldwide, and for the third time in Lisbon.
Women’s visibility in urban spaces is key to claim the right to the city. Cycling is a particularly powerful way for women to become visible in society and a completely new way to interact with the city. Fancy Women Bike Ride is an event for women, organized by women to remember the liberating joy of cycling and to inspire more women to use a bicycle in cities. We want to empower and support women to feel safe in the city while cycling freely. Allies are welcome too.
Ride a Bike: The more women cycle, the more women will be encouraged to cycle.
