Today, we join in the celebration of International Women’s Day, a vital occasion that underscores the ongoing struggle for women’s rights. This day highlights crucial issues such as gender equality, reproductive rights, and the pressing challenges of violence and abuse against women globally.
In the spirit of this celebration, we want to recognize the outstanding contributions of female cyclists in the Northwest Territories. From grassroots initiatives that encourage participation to competitive athletes excelling on the cycling circuit, women are making significant strides in this exhilarating sport. Their involvement extends beyond riding; they are also stepping into roles as coaches, event organizers, and mentors, inspiring the next generation of cyclists.
By celebrating these achievements and advocating for equity in sports, we can empower young women to pursue their dreams and break down barriers. Let’s continue to uplift and support women in cycling and all areas of life. Happy International Women’s Day!
