Spokewomen Newcastle

I heart bikes – Bike mechanics courses for women, run by women. Run on Saturdays throughout the year. Contact .

Women’s cycle training- on-road cycle training for women from the perspective of a woman. Currently we are working on a project with JET, Re-cyke Y’bike, Northumbria University and Newcastle Science city. This project focuses on engaging women from black and minority ethnic backgrounds in cycling over 10 weeks. I’ll be blogging about it soon!

Toon Alleycats- Treasurehunts on bikes around the toon about once every three months. These are fun and friendly, each with a theme that runs through the checkpoints. We’ve had an Art Attack, Monster, Animal and Super hero alleycat, with prizes for the best dressed. Alleycats aim to build a cycling community.
