Different Gear Season Opener

Different Gear (DG) is a monthly ride series aimed at uniting queer communities of color through cycling and camaraderie. DG offers participants a safe space, a caring community and a fun and joyous opportunity to ride bikes across NYC. Riders of all skill levels are invited join the fun; this is a no drop ride which means we take care of us from start to finish.

On May 19th we will meet up at Bike Plant, 175 Tompkins Ave Bed-Stuy Bk, between 9-9:30a. Come on the earlier side if your bike needs a little love, air, and to connect with our ride leaders and marshalls. From there we will leisurely pedal to Astoria Park; then we will take a moment to stretch, chill, and commune before we ride back to Bed-Stuy.

Whether you're an all seasons rider or a novice to cycling on NYC streets, you are sure to find community with DG!

PLEASE NOTE - We respect and appreciate our allies and explicitly name that our mutual work is a space where the empowerment and visibility of QTBIPOC is centralized. At Different Gear we define our accomplices and allies as any person that does not identify as a queer or trans person of color who is open to sharing opportunities, resources, visibility and is engaged in advancing our work towards Liberation through cycling.
