of new riders to challenge themselves, meet a new community and experience a bike space guided by the ethos of “by us and for us.”
Though ten years have passed since the last iteration of Babes, the community hasn’t gone away! We envision Babes in Bikeland 11 to be a celebration — a bike race and ride for women, trans, femme and gender expansive riders.
For the 2026 event, you will simply register on BikeReg to participate. And at the start, riders will have the option of two route lengths (approximately 10 or 30+ miles). Compete solo or cruise with friends. Dress in your speediest spandex or a fun costume. The choice is yours.
Registration opens at 12pm at Venture Bikes (Midtown Greenway at 10th Ave ramp). Race starts at 2pm.
If the cost of registration is a barrier to you participating, please reach out to us! [email protected].
Babes in Bikeland is for femme, trans, women and gender expansive riders — cis men are not eligible to ride in the event, but we would love your support! You can reach out [email protected] to express interest in volunteering.
