IWD Social Ride 10th March 24

18/02/2024 by Shirley Donnelly

International Women’s Day Social Ride

Imagine a gender equal world. A world free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination. A world that’s diverse, equitable, and inclusive. A world where difference is valued and celebrated. Together we can forge women’s equality. Collectively we can all #EmbraceEquity.

International Women’s Day 2024

International Women’s Day is on the 8th March 2024. To celebrate this day, DORC will be holding a women’s social ride at the New Pine Forest, Howard Springs on Sunday 10th March 2024. All women are welcome to come along and enjoy a relaxed and easy-paced, social meander through the pine forest followed by breakfast. It’s an inclusive ride. All riders are welcome. Is there a better way to spend a few hours on a Sunday morning?

You do not need to be a member of DORC/AusCycling for this event but you will need to sign the day waiver. Our preferred option is that you become a member of DORC or take out the AusCycling free 4 week trail membership available here. The club has so much going on this year and it is a great time to become a member.

If you wish to attend you will need to RSVP to 0413599914 by close of business Thursday, 7th March ’24, for catering purposes.

On completion of the ride there will be a free breakfast with your choice of chicken and salad, fresh fruit, granola, yogurt.
This event is proudly sponsored by AusCycling.

The meeting point for this ride will be at the dirt carpark on Howard Springs Rd on the right hand side of the road, almost opposite the the Howard Springs Reserve entry. Please arrive at 7:45am for an 8:00am start.

Ensure that you park in the carparking area. Do not park on the roadside.

Location New Pine Forest
Meeting point The bottom carpark
Date Sunday 10 Mar ’24
Time 7:45 for an 8:00am start

The ride will be at an easy pace and will be approx 1.5 hours in duration.  There will be  plenty of breaks along the way to regroup.

You will need a mtb in good working order, an Aust Standards helmet, enclosed footwear, gloves and plenty of water. Riders please be self-sufficient with water, spare tube, pump and tyre levers, etc.
