    The history of women’s rights + fashion + bicycling is fascinating. There seem to be no shortage of videos about it — I was trying to find the one I watched recently but can’t come up with it specifically.

      There’s a good episode of 99% Invincible on bicycles that speaks a fair amount about women and sufferage

    Man. In the 1990’s one of my aunties was telling me all about how unladylike biking is. I think she was trying to dissuade me from doing it myself
