Women on Wheels Cycle Tour Programme
Women on Wheels is a Glasgow based, women-led cycling group, that empowers women of all backgrounds and abilities to become confident cyclists and open up the possibilities this can bring. We were delighted to help support funded places for women to access the opportunities to gain confidence and skills to take on long-distance cycling trips.

Over £8000 raised for the Alpkit Foundation through the winter Sonder Gravel Series
It was another incredible series across the UK, taking in a delightful mix of routes from all 10 Alpkit stores and HQ. With upwards of 150 riders on some, there was always a warm, fun and inclusive vibe, whether seasoned graveler or first-timer. All proceeds went to the Alpkit Foundation, so a huge thank you to all that came!
