In this two and a half hour session you'll get to know a group of fabulous local women just like yourself, all while honing the skills you need to safely get around by bike.<\/p>

As it is an afternoon session we will kick off with free coffee at Green Park Dining sharing our bike stories. From there we will move on into a traffic-free environment and practise all the basic bike skills you need to safely move onto the roads. There'll be plenty of time to ask questions in a supportive and friendly group. Moving on to some quiet local roads we'll learn how to use the bike lane confidently, navigate roundabouts, make hook turns, confidently choose our position on the road and safely get across intersections. <\/p>

We'll be finishing again at Green Park Dining<\/a> where we can debrief the ride and discuss what to do when you have a mechanical, route planning around the City of Yarra and further afield, and road rules and there'll be plenty of time to answer questions as they come up, whether they're about bicycles, accessories, riding at night or finding friends to ride with. You'll also get to meet the guys from Velo Cycles<\/a> who will be answering all of your bike-shop related questions!<\/p>

The Pushy Women Yarra training session is on Sunday October 15th at 2pm in Fitzroy. Suitable for women who have a bicycle and are able to ride a bike but wish to improve their confidence. All participants must be over 12 years old and any under 16 MUST be accompanied by a guardian who is also enrolled on the course. The course will be conducted in a traffic-free environment and on roads.<\/p>

Thanks to the City of Yarra this session is free but you MUST register! <\/p>

Participants must bring their own bicycle, helmet and water bottle. <\/p>

Like to get out on your bike more often? Grab your gal pals and join our Pushy Women Excursion for a gorgeous autumnal bike path excursion by bike!  With good coffee, great company and a farmer's market picnic our Pushy Women Excursion is the perfect opportunity to remind yourself of all the great reasons to ride. <\/p>

We'll be kicking off this wheely<\/em> good outing with a delicious free coffee courtesy of Green Park Dining<\/a>, while the mechanics from Velo Cycles<\/a> next door check over your bike and make sure it's excursion ready.  It'll be a great opportunity to introduce yourself to your fellow riders, too. <\/p>

Once everyone is ready we'll be heading off at a leisurely pace eastwards along the Capital City Trail. There'll be plenty of time for socialising, admiring the view and checking out the autumn leaves; your ride leaders will guide you so that you can relax and enjoy the whirr of many wheels!<\/p>

We'll sweep around onto the Merri Creek Trail, head south over some gentle rolling hills, oooh and aaah as we pass Dights Falls and finally finish up at Abbotsford Convent<\/a> in time for the Slow Food Farmer's Market<\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>

There'll be time to explore the market stalls, and enjoy some of your shopping as a picnic. You can stay at Abbotsford Covent as long as you wish and explore the gallery, studios, bookshop or cafes. But if you do want a guide to help you get home, two of our ride leaders will be heading back north to Velo Cycles just after midday and one will be heading back towards Richmond and East Melbourne for those heading in that direction. <\/p>

Not sure how to get to Green Park Dining? One of our ride leaders will be leaving from the Melbourne Bike Share<\/a> station at the cnr Napier St and Victoria Parade<\/a> at 9:30 to ride up to Green Park Dining. She'll also pick up anyone waiting at the Fitzroy Town Hall Melbourne Bike Share Station<\/a> at 9:40. And this means of course that if you don't have your own bicycle you can borrow one of the Melbourne Bike Share bikes! <\/p>

Tickets to the Pushy Women Excursion are FREE!<\/p>

Proudly presented in partnership with our favourite self appointed commuter cycling evangelist Catherine Deveny, Pushy Women will bring together Melbourne’s most fabulous and fiercely funny women to share their story of life on two wheels.<\/p>

A gangbuster line up of town bikes, lady riders, pedal pushers, lycra ladettes, fixie hipsters, BMX bandits, dykes on bikes, step through ladies and women who don't ride AT ALL.<\/p>

Six of Melbourne's most prominent comedians and performers will present their take on being a pushy woman this coming April. Now in it's fifth year, and second in the Melbourne Comedy Festival this laugh out loud storytelling event celebrating women's lives on wheels. Featuring:<\/p>

Four piece feminist cabaret sensation Lady Sings It Better<\/a>, award winning writer, novelist and slam poet Maxine Beneba-Clarke<\/a>, stand-up comedy dynamo Becky Lucas<\/a>,  
Diana Nguyen<\/a>, actress, performer, speaker, comedian and more names TBC.<\/p>

Hosted and curated by writer, comedian, atheist and self appointed commuter cycling evangelist Catherine Deveny, Pushy Women is an ode to this inimitable Melbournian's love of bikes. “It’s faster than walking, safer than driving, cheaper than public transport and it’s the closest thing to flying”, Catherine Deveny.<\/p>

“She's brassy in her delivery and transgressive in her material, acting as a mouthpiece for those tired of the blithe accepted wisdoms and no-go zones of mainstream society. Her audience is delighted”, The Age.<\/p>

Does usually sell out, so better... <\/p>

So you know how to ride a bike, but you never actually ride? If you've got basic bike riding skills but not the confidence to use them, then Pushy Women training is for you!<\/p>

We're thrilled to be able to present the first of our Pushy Women Training series for the City of Yarra<\/a> on Sunday April 10th! Pushy Women is a sociable and friendly training program for women who know how to ride but don't have the confidence to use their bikes regularly. <\/p>

In this two and a half hour session you'll get to know a group of fabulous local women just like yourself, all while honing the skills you need to safely get around by bike.<\/p>

We'll start off in a traffic-free environment and practise all the basic bike skills you need to safely move onto the roads. There'll be plenty of time to ask questions in a supportive and friendly group. Moving on to some quiet local roads we'll learn how to use the bike lane confidently, navigate roundabouts, make hook turns and safely get across intersections. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>

We'll be taking time to discuss what to do when you have a mechanical, route planning around Fitzroy and further afield,  road rules and there'll be plenty of time to answer questions as they come up, whether they're about bicycles, accessories, riding at night or finding friends to ride with. <\/p>

The Pushy Women Yarra training session is on Sunday April 10th at 10:00am in North Carlton. Suitable for women who have a bicycle and are able to ride a bike but wish to improve their confidence. All participants must be over 12 years old and any under 16 MUST be accompanied by a guardian who is also enrolled on the course.
