The Flamingos Take Flight

Fanny Flamingo

What Are The Flamingos?

The Flamingos is an initiative of the Florida FreeWheelers to reach out to women cyclists of all riding abilities.

The Flamingos’ goal:

Provide women specific club activities including road bike rides, ATB rides, educational and social events.
It’s all about promoting activities for female recreational cyclists.

If you are a FreeWheeler and a female, welcome to the flock! Your FreeWheeler membership is your ticket to join – no extra dues required.

If you’re not a member of the FreeWheelers, sign up today and catch the Flamingo Fever. To join the Florida FreeWheelers, go to our home page, click on Become A New Member and fill out an on-line application.

It’s Just For Gals

Sorry guys. The Flamingo rides may be "Just for Gals," but we still love riding with the fellas. We also plan to participate in the regular coed FreeWheelers rides.

And ladies, make sure you have the following with you on the bike:

Spare tube
Pump or CO2 cartridge,
Tire levers
ID (Check out www.roadid.com for a great on-person ID)
Money for snacks and a cell phone are great additions
Helmets mandatory
