While being LGBTQ+ led, Out Velo are also open to those who don’t identify themselves as LGBTQ+ to join them too.
The organisation run road cycling weekends and day rides across the UK, often in National Parks and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, while they also organise group trips abroad.
Wales’ beautiful landscapes certainly make for a dynamic geographical playground for many cyclists, but attending Out Velo’s in-person events can be a challenge for some due to the limitations of rural transport links. However, Out Velo have found a way of connecting people by co-ordinating group rides on Zwift, the multiplayer online cycling and running physical training programme that enables users to interact, train, and compete in a virtual world. This allows them to offer a truly inclusive cycling experience so that members don’t feel like they’re missing out.
