"Let me tell you what I think of bicycling. I think it has done more to emancipate women than anything else in the world. It gives women a feeling of freedom and self-reliance. I stand and rejoice every time I see a woman ride by on a wheel...the picture of free, untrammeled womanhood." -- Susan B. Anthony

 

 

 

 

 

Mission Statement
The Knox Revolution Women's Cycling Club is a not-for-profit corporation dedicated to promoting the sport of cycling among women of all ages and abilities.  Our goal is to encourage women to engage in an active lifestyle by introducing them to this challenging, multi-faceted sport.  We achieve this goal by offering a network of experienced riders who provide advice and support with respect to all aspects of cycling, including skills, training, and nutrition, all in a non-threatening and supportive environment.  Additionally, we are dedicated to raising public awareness of issues related to women's health and fitness, as well as bicycle advocacy. And we have fun doing it!
