A feminist history of bicycling for sport and adventure spans a century of women who changed the world from two wheels. This vivacious tale, peppered with fascinating details from primary sources, shows how women were sometimes the stars of bicycle races and exhibitions, and other times had to overcome sexism, exclusion, and economic inequalities in order to ride. From the almost burlesque show races and creative performances of the 19th century to the evolution of cycling as a modern sport and form of transportation, April Streeter conveys the evolving emotional resonance of bicycling for women and their communities.

Tiffany Lam fell in love with cycling while living in Washington, DC, revelling in the freedom to get around the city, liberation from street harassment, and connecting with her community and with other cyclists, especially as part of her local advocacy group's 'Roll Model' program. After writing her masters dissertation on the gender gap in cycling, she was motivated to share her own story and those of other women cyclists in her zine Mind the Gender Cycling Gap (Microcosm, 2018). The second issue, Freedom to Ride is filled with women's stories of bicycling and empowerment. The theme here is freedom liberation from the hassles of urban traffic and gender norms.
