Dirty Wknd x ICC Rapha Women's 100 Ride
Every September since 2012, Rapha has been running a global ride to celebrate women's cycling - the WMNS100.
Whilst the gender gap within the cycling industry is definitely better than it was in 2012, there is still so much work to do, which is why we are supporting the WMNS100 rides again this year.
Not only that but it's the 10 year anniversary of the event, so even more reason to come out, join a group ride and support women's cycling.
For this year we have teamed up with Islington CC and Rapha to bring you some awesome training rides in the run up to the big day, as well as a classic Essex 100km ride on the day itself - Sunday 18th Sept.
Watch the video and then check out the ride details below.
