This week (16-23 june) is Oxford Bike Week. To mark the occasion we took to the saddle and we went looking for free food on the toe paths and in the hedge-rows of oxford. We found loads of elderflower, lime leaves, nettles, horthorn, berries, poppies, some fungus and even pre-packaged sandwiches and salads from a well-known food chain’s bin (true urban foraging!).

This is a blog for women who cycle and stand up for women’s right to ride, fix and have good old-fashioned fun on bikes. Spokeswomen, you might say.
We believe every woman who braves the cat calls and takes to the road on a bike should be applauded. We want to be part of active community across the country that gets more women cycling.
Bikes can teach us how to live more simply, move our bodies, enjoy the journey, connect to our environment and protect it. Bikes promote practical skills and cooperation in our individualist, material world. In short, bikes are the future and we want women to have an equal part of it.
We post stories of our escapades, handy advice, news of bike projects and events and everything else of interest to one who cycles.
This site is undergoing some changes... html is not quite like riding a bike.. this may take some time.
