This summer join us and Pedal for Pride!
Every weekend though June and July Pride and Sport is coming to you! The Pedal for Pride will be cycling across the Netherlands lead by @st_sutherland. We will ride across every province to raise awareness, create connections and celebrate Pride in Cycling.
Beginning on the 18th of June, all rides will be done at a social pace and our routes will be shared each week. We are excited to have partnered with Komoot, BBB Cycling, IRIS.cc and KNWU who will be supporting us throughout the Pedal for Pride.
Pedal with us for part of the day, come for a quick chat at a cafe stop, or cycle the whole route with us each week.

Neurodiversity Pride Day 2022
The first Pedal for Pride ride falls on the 5th international Neurodiversity Pride Day. We as a LGTBQIA+ community show our support for our neurodivergent members in celebrating their cross-sectional pride today.
On the 18th of June the Stichting Neurodiversiteit challenges cyclists to track their kms through the Stride App and collectively cycle the circumference of the moon in one day. We invite you to track your kms in support of Neurodiversity Pride Day on the Pedal for Pride launch. It’s a show of strength, resilience and pride for neurodivergent people and a sign of friendship and cooperation amongst Pride movements.
