Welcome to the Cycling with Sarah Blog and our very first post.
Rediscover the joy of cycling at any age!
What happens when “Senior Women” find their community!
How the loneliness epidemic so many senior women face doesn’t stand a chance when you find your “tribe”!
Discover the amazing physical, mental and social benefits of cycling with a group of women!
Learn about the specific needs of senior women cycling including training and safety tips. How to figure out that gear talk and what is important.
Health and mobility, nutrition and hydration. Read about all our adventures with our ride re-caps, to upcoming events and special announcements.
We will be featuring some of our very own riders who will share their tips for cycling as a senior woman and what keeps them motivated. What barriers and challenges they faced and how they overcame them. Why they inspire us so much.
Hard to believe this is our 4 th year of cycling, and from an initial 2 groups of 6 ladies we are now over 70 women strong. As senior women (55+) we encourage and support each other to feel that joy we all felt as children when we jumped on our bikes and set off on a grand adventure.
We have created a great community with our members; we call each other cycling sisters” because we feel like family!
We have also created a sense of community with the local businesses who support us on our mission of getting more women on bikes and promoting that cycling is for life. We look forward to sharing with you how our business supporters have motivated us to give back to our communities through their kindness to us. Each year we run our Community Donation Campaigns to help those organizations whose mission is to help others in need.
Kindness, respect for others, encouragement and support are the
foundational values of our cycling club. We are pretty proud of that! Stay tuned; there’s more to come.
Till later – Sarah and Rose
