Women Crush Wednesday is our weekly t-shirt ride, just for women. It’s a space for women to socialize, crush, and simply ride gravel bikes and have fun.
And in true Thank Gravel It’s Friday style, a space to rip trails in t-shirts, flannels, and anything else that transforms our mindset. A space that you can show up as yourself, feel welcome, challenge yourself, and leave feeling full. This is a space to show up to support friends, express ourselves, meet new people, and celebrate the good times gravel riding brings us.
Expect a mix of trafficked paved road, bike path, loose and technical single track, cow grates, and dirt roads. Pace will be moderate.
Know the route! We will have a couple spots to regroup, however, this is NOT a ‘no drop’ ride. This ride will require technical bike handling skills and may not be suitable for beginner riders. We will have a leader to guide the group and maintain a moderate pace, but will not have specific sweeps. There will be a re-group stop, but we will try to keep the group moving to savor as much daylight as possible. The group may split up, but we can all meet back at Rayback after. Make sure you have all the nutrition, water, tools, lights, and gear you need to finish the route.
All WCW riders will get happy hour pricing on drinks at Rayback after the ride! Just make sure to let the Rayback team know that you are with "Women Crush Wednesdays" to receive the discount.
Please DO NOT park in the Rayback parking lot, we are asking that you either ride in or park on Glenwood Drive and ride the bike path to the start. Rayback Collective is easily accessible from the Goose Creek bike path. Stay after for some food, drinks, and hangs.
