Event

Nothing is quite as cathartic as some good, solid girl time; add a self-propelled tour of our world-class scenery and, well, you've got yourself something to look forward to. These monthly rides, titled Vélo Femme, typically start with a 30- to 40-minute workshop on some aspect of bikes and riding, then tour the coast or climb into the hills (rides are usually 15-20 miles). No need for intimidation; it's a beginner level, no drop ride (i.e. no woman left behind). For more information call 831-427-2580.

"I stand and rejoice every time I see a woman ride by on a wheel...the picture of free, untrammeled womanhood." — Susan B. Anthony.

Yeah Susan B.! We couldn't agree more.
