Terry Bicycles, a leader in design innovations for women cyclists, launched ‘Ride it Forward’ to further its long standing Company mission to get more women riding bicycles. ‘We are giving away bikes to passionate women cyclists who inspire other women to ride.’ says Liz Robert. ‘Whether they ride for self improvement, for charity, for advocacy and awareness, or just for love of the bike, these inspirational women become our ambassadors as we gather and promote their stories to our growing community of women cyclists. As they draw more women into a cycling lifestyle, they are riding it forward to make life better for all women.
Ride it Forward currently is hosting bi-monthly photo contests at www.terrybicycles.com on a variety of topics. Finalists are selected by a panel of Terry judges and then presented for public voting. Stories and photos of the winning entrants are published on the Terry Peloton, a community site of female cycling enthusiasts, and at www.rideitforward.com.
