Building a Community with ABOB Denver

All Bodies on Bikes has 11 regional chapters across the United States. Today we’re chatting with our Denver team about their experiences leading an All Bodies on Bikes chapter, their motivations, and some learnings they’ve had during their first year as an official All Bodies on Bikes Chapter.Noelle (they/them): white, queer, non-binary, fat femme who goes by they/them. Likes bikes, hikes, baking, embroidering swear words, drawing friendly monsters and fat ballerinas, being consistently inconsistent about ALL those hobbies just mentioned, and building community. Pretty consistent about that last one.Tara (she/her) - Former triathlete, current gravel cyclist, and starting to dabble in mountain biking. Outside of cycling, I'm a dog mom, physical therapist, and enjoy all the outdoor activities Colorado has to offer. Beth (they/them/she/her) - white, large, agender person that believes N+1 is the correct amount of bikes. Former collegiate athlete that became a bike commuter, a long distance backpacker, then an adventure cyclist. Loves art, nature, dogs, coffee, and human connection. Daniela (she/her) - fat, cis-het, white ADHD-happy Latina. Reconnected with bike riding a couple years ago as a way to spend time with her partner and to dabble in the sport of triathlon.https://www.instagram.com/bgdbdenver/https://www.instagram.com/rideforracialjustice/ https://www.instagram.com/queerplusbikes/ https://www.instagram.com/fems_themsdenverbiking/https://www.instagram.com/littletonsocialcycle/https://www.instagram.com/combawomen/https://www.instagram.com/rar.frontrange/https://www.instagram.com/treehousecyclery/ RAR Frontrange Google Calendar of EventsColorado Hippos Tri-Club Facebook GroupSupport Our Partners:Cleverhood: Get 15% off using code AllWeather at cleverhood.com
