Girls of Summer All-Girl Alleycat is Saturday + More women/trans/femme bike events this week
For the seventh year, the folks behind the monthly Menstrual Monday rides will host the Girls of Summer All-Girl Alleycat Saturday.
The women/trans/femme ride will have all new stops this year and boasts a serious list of prize sponsors. It's the kind of race that attracts fast riders as well as people just in it for a fun afternoon biking around town. So invite your friends.
Registration starts at 2 p.m. at Dr. Jose Rizal Park. Race starts at 3. $10.
