👏 Huge congratulations to Muinat who recently took part in the Windrush Aquathlon and won her category!
Muinat's win is so inspiring considering she learned to swim less than 1 year ago!
👇
Thank you to @LDNMEvents and @LMFoundation_ for supporting our open water sessions helping make success stories like this possible! 🙌
💬 “I did my first aquathon last year. I had just joined Tri Sisters & Women in Tri & had just learned to swim but hadn’t swam in a 50m pool before, so I had no clue what I was doing. I might have been in the bottom 20 or something. It inspired me to keep training & improving" 👇
This weekend, Muinat will take on the @T100London, so wish her the best in the comments below!
💛 #TriSisters is our project supporting women in our Cycle Sisters community to explore new challenges beyond cycling, taking on running, swimming, and triathlon events.
The results are in and we couldn’t be prouder of our #SwitchYourJourney participants! 👇
Over 2 weeks, 550+ everyday trips were switched from cars or public transport to cycling 🚲
Every woman who completed our survey plans to keep riding for transport!

✨ Congrats to Anusha, winner of this year’s Brompton bike for the most inspiring story.
Starting out full of nerves and with an old inexpensive bike, she switched a journey to cycling every single day during the challenge!
Huge thanks to @BromptonBicycle for the amazing prize!
Thank you to @Muslim_Aid for sponsoring the challenge and to our partners: @BromptonBicycle @BromptonHire
@LovetoRide_ @muc_off @komoot and @TfL for helping make this challenge, and these incredible #SwitchYourJourney transformations, possible.
We’re excited to welcome six amazing women who are joining us as Community Ambassadors!
They'll be doing outreach in their local boroughs to let more women know about #CycleSisters, ensuring our spaces continue to reflect the beautiful diversity of the women in our communities.
We’re so grateful to @RaleighBikes_UK for providing three brand new shiny bikes to our Tower Hamlets group!
Our riders have already been out enjoying them on our latest group ride (they had a great time as you can see). 😍📸

Access to high-quality bikes makes all the difference! It means more women can join our rides and enjoy cycling!
Not having a bike shouldn’t be a barrier and thanks to partners like @RaleighBikes_UK, it’s not 💛
