HER Cycling Connections

Her Cycling Connections is an empowering and transformative program designed for women, by women, to overcome barriers and create pathways for safer, more accessible cycling. The initiative started with a small group of mothers from Hilltop Public School, fostering social connections through bike riding while enhancing their well-being and self-identity. With support from Bicycle NSW, Addventageous expanded this initiative to establish a dedicated program that addresses the unique challenges women face in cycling, such as safety concerns, accessibility issues, and social stigmas.

The holistic program aims to build confidence, increase self-worth, and promote physical and mental well-being through cycling. It mainly targets women who experience disengagement due to cultural barriers, unemployment, health challenges, domestic violence, and isolation. Her Cycling Connections offers a comprehensive approach that combines vocational training, fitness, and mentoring, providing a solid support system to women in need.
