I could easily be on a mixed forum like bike journal, but honestly, a good percentage of MY issues have been women's specific. Saddle woes, intimidation, previous lack of being athletic.

example: my husband and I both rode bikes as little kids. When he was 6 he was riding a too large bike down a hill and crashing to stop it.
When I was 7 i was too afraid of a bike so I gave up until i was 9 and then learned to ride... carefully, with both hands...

we both have been riding since we were little kids, but our life experience was different. (I feel sorry for boys actually who might be like me) but on this forum, regularly new women show up who never rode before. Or with limited experience. Or with health and/or weight issues, not really comfortable to talk to a room full of guys about it.

That's why I'm here. I like the sister hood.
