Retailers and brands are aware that women’s cycling is growing – and many are clearly keen to offer their support. Over the past year we’ve seen events run by Trek Bikes , plus One for the Girls nights at Evans Cycles stores, who also offer dedicated women’s only maintenance classes.

In the most recent addition, Halfords have announced a new commitment to women’s cycling with maintenance nights in their stores and a partnership with British Cycling’s Breeze.

No doubt there will be more events in 2015 and they show a desire from retailers and brands to support the growing number of women on bikes.
