Sprinters

**What this is** A relaxed group ride around the Olympic Park, followed by a stop for a coffee or pint. The paths are wide, there’s no traffic, and it’s set up so everyone can ride at an easy pace and actually talk to each other. It’s more about meeting women and riding together than doing anything intense. Most women come on their own. That’s completely normal here and we make sure you don’t feel it. Women usually range from their 20s through to their 60s. It’s normally a mix of new and returning women, so you won’t be the only new person there. If you’re feeling nervous, that’s very common. You can message beforehand or on the day and we can help you settle in. *** **Where to find us** Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, Stratford Meeting point: Stratford Gate (near Westfield) 📍 51.5433, -0.0122 *** **What to bring** Bring whatever you want. Most people bring water and something small, and we’ll stop somewhere after. If you don’t have a bike, there are Santander docking stations around the park and bike hire inside the park. If you’re using a day pass, bikes need to be docked every hour, but we’ll be stopping anyway so it won’t be an issue. *** **Important** This is a female only lesbian space. That boundary is clear and upheld at events. *** **How to attend** You must register in advance to attend [www.thelcommunity.com/events](http://www.thelcommunity.com/events) *** One quick note on how the community works L Community is member funded.
