What is SheCycles?

MTB_side.jpg

www.SheCycles.com - the on-line magazine for women cyclists

Launched in September 2005, SheCycles.com is a female focussed on-line magazine dedicated to everything that is 'women's cycling'. It reflects the growing popularity of cycling among women as a means of getting and keeping fit, and the increased acknowledgement of this by the major cycling and clothing manufacturers with their women specific ranges.

SheCycles.com is edited by experienced mountain bike racer and journalist, Bex Hopkins. Read more about the editorial team here.

Inspirational

Written and edited by women riders SheCycles.com covers everything from commuting to freeride mountain biking to road racing and even jollies down the towpath at the weekend! Whatever inspires women to ride a bike is included and respected. Read personal race reports or inspiring articles on cycling adventures, plus interviews with the pro's and teams.

Product Focused

  • Gear and bike reviews - We love gear, gadgets and anything bike oriented and thorough testing is at the heart of SheCycles.com to help readers know what to buy, where from, and how to use it. If it's designed for or suitable for women it will be tested and rated, allowing women more time to enjoy riding around, instead of shopping around.
  • Shopping - visit our Shopping Partners for the latest in women specific gear and bikes plus plenty of bargains. Or look up you local shops and dealers in your area in the Local Shop section
  • Secondhand section - buy and sell bikes and gear in our Secondhand section, it's free of charge to all members.
  • User Reviews - share your opinions about products, holidays and bikes on the User Review section, or check out other member's reviews about a product you're thinking of buying.

    Expert Advice and know-how

  • Training and Health - articles and advice about how to get fit, train better, prepare for an event and stay well and happy on your bike. We get the low down from experts to help you get the most out of your cycling.
  • Set-up and Advice - helpful articles for riders, from beginners through the experts, on how to set your bike up to work better for you. Where to go for help with bike set-up, skills courses and coaching sessions, we put you in touch with the experts and information to get you riding better.

    Community

  • Forum - Members can use the SheCycles.com Forum to meet like-minded riders, arrange get togethers, join in on group rides, ask advice from peers and the Clinic's resident Doctor and Pro-elite racer Kim Hurst.
  • Training Blogs - share your Training Blogs with other members, see how others train, join in the banter and be inspired.
  • Rides and Events - finding other women to ride with can be hard, but SheCycles.com puts you in touch with other riders and groups in your area. We promote women's rides, skills and coaching sessions and support women racers. Check out the latest Rides News and Race Reports.

    www.SheCycles.com is fast becoming the bible of women's cycling.

    What a great idea, SheCycles. I've been biking for a few years now & just joined a local club. As usual is mostly blokes, very nice they are but I can't talk about girly things. So im glad there is people on the same wave length as me.

    Oh, and looking forward to my new Trek 8wsd

    thanks
