She Pedals Scotland: Join the Movement on 14 June

She Pedals Scotland aims to see as many women and girls as possible out cycling on Saturday 14 June. It doesn’t matter what type of bicycle you ride or what form of cycling you enjoy, whether you’re cycling 1 mile or 100 miles, every woman and girl is invited to be part of this special occasion celebrating women’s cycling.

To help us understand how people are getting involved, the She Pedals Scotland team has created a quick and simple registration form. By filling it in, you’ll also have the chance to win £100!

With Saturday 14 June fast approaching, the team has been busy compiling the range of opportunities to get involved. From cycle races and reliability rides to leisurely Breeze rides, there are plenty of ways to take part. Some events are exclusively for women and girls, while others are open to everyone. Whether you’re heading out on your own, riding with friends, or taking part in an organised event, every way of joining in helps make She Pedals Scotland special.

Racing

For the racing enthusiasts, Torvelo Racing is hosting a road race as part of the Women’s Scotia Series. Taking place on the rolling Abington circuit, a favourite in the Scottish racing calendar, this race forms part of the National Scotia Series. Check out the course details here.

Reliability Trials

Similar to Audax events, Reliability Trials (also known as Reliability Rides) are non-competitive, self-supported distance rides following a pre-set route without signage, marshals, or a broom wagon. Riders are expected to be self-sufficient and navigate the course using their own knowledge, a map, or a GPS device.

Traffic-Free Events

Enjoy cycling in a safe, enclosed environment:

 

Breeze Rides

Breeze is our programme to support more women (back) into cycling. Breeze rides are friendly, fun, and free to join. Led by trained and knowledgeable ride leaders, options range from easy-paced rides for beginners and returners to more challenging and mountain bike rides. Some rides are also open to women with children, helping those with caring responsibilities take part. Click here to search for a ride in your area.

Currently, She Pedals Scotland rides are available in the Scottish Borders (starting from Kelso, Tweedbank and Ancrum) Stirling, and Moray, with more being planned.

Club Rides

Several affiliated cycling clubs have organised She Pedals Scotland rides, including Moray Firth Cycling Club and Revolution CT. Check out the events listing on the She Pedals Scotland Facebook page, or get in touch with your local club to find out what they’ve got planned for the day.

Wider Community Activities and Events

We’ve reached out to the wider cycling community and are excited to see lots of support and opportunities for women and girls to get involved—from sportives to local community events.
