Womens Cycling

Our first gathering recently got the conversation started, and I’m looking forward to continuing it and welcoming new people. This meetup is a relaxed discussion where women can connect and talk about life, experiences, and the role money plays in our everyday journeys. We’ll start with brief introductions and then have an open conversation about money lessons, ideas, and topics people are curious about exploring. The goal is simply to create a friendly space where women can talk openly, share perspectives, and learn from each other. No expertise required — just curiosity and a willingness to join the conversation. Whether you’re new to the group or joining us again, you’re warmly welcome.

Welcome all beautiful Bitcoin curious or serious women. We will have a discussion on Fiat vs Bitcoin, a little bit of learning and discussions that are important to the group. This a social group so bring your questions and curiosity, prepared to listen and share. Too often, women are left out of the conversation while they prepare to live longer, care for more people and are the heart of any community. Wouldn't it be great if we could be more educated on ways to beat inflation, have more choices, and be prepared for the changes to come? Please bring your questions, so that we can plan topics for future meet-ups.

After lunch (you bring your own) we head north toward Bethesda, then make our way east through Chevy Chase and back to the Nature Center. The ride affords ample scenic vistas, multiple Kodak moments, and dare we say it, abundant E-Bike love. Please bring some snacks, lunch and plenty of water. Our bikes will be always in our sight. No additional locks are required to keep your bike safe on this trip. The group stops a few times for slower riders to catch up. The distance will be around 18 miles or shorter any time you are fully satisfied with biking for the day. **Please charge your battery.
