📣 Cycling events typically have significantly lower levels of female participation compared to men. To help address this gap, Project 30by30 was started by Whistler Fondo to encourage more women to take up and stay in the sport of cycling. This initiative aims to delve into the reasons for why, bring to light under represented topics, and propose actionable steps that will aim to encourage change. They aim to have at least 30% female RBC GranFondo Whistler event participation by 2030, up from their 22.5% average. 👩🏼‍🤝‍👩🏽 30by30 is not meant to come to the table with complete solutions. It is a shared journey of discovery and conversation to help bring greater understanding for what is required for better gender equity within cycling. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ❤️ Heart-Pounding Stories is a curated showcase of real, personal tales. Brought to you live in the intimate atmosphere of Samsara, this event brings our community together to connect, share, and experience in the raw power of true stories that will make you feel alive again. This edition features guest speakers Michaela Khan and Lindsay Derer, who will share their inspiring Whistler GranFondo journeys, celebrating the strength of determined women and the power of community. 🚴‍♀️ Michaela and Linds are average cyclists with above average passions for the sport! After cycling most of Vancouver's roads during the pandemic, they were both motivated to take on the Sea to Sky highway in the Whistler GranFondo last summer. Inspired to help build a bigger biking community for minorities, Michaela also coaches the Women's Intro to Road Cycling Fondo Clinic and leads group rides with Samsara. Their approach to biking is simple - stay safe and have fun! We hope that this event will encourage more women to get on bikes and help to reduce the gender gap in the cycling space.  🎟 Two lucky attendees will win tickets to a women's Fondo clinic! 🪑 Please plan to arrive 10 minutes early (by 6:50 pm) to ensure that the event starts on time and without interruptions. We also ask that you BYOC (Bring Your Own Chair)—whether it’s a stool, camping chair, pouf, or anything else that will keep you comfy. If you don't have a chair or you can't bring one, just let us know and we’ll be happy to reserve one for you. Guest Storytellers: Michaela Khan and Lindsay Derer
