About your trip

 

Join us for a weekend of sisterhood and cycling as we explore the stunning Dorset countryside and coast. Our property is located in Southbourne, Dorset, a cute suburb of Bournemouth by the beach. It's near the New Forest, making it a fantastic destination for cycling, adventure and pure relaxation. We can't wait!

About your organizer

Welcome to the sisterhood! We are Black Women On Wheels (BWOW), a cycling group for Black women with a difference. Our focus is fun, laughter and joy, while riding our bikes. The group started in April 2021 and as community of Black women, we empower each other to ride our bikes, while assisting with issues specific to Black women such as haircare while cycling. It does not matter if you are a complete beginner, a cycle commuter or an advanced rider. Be Bold, Be You, BWOW!
