I feel like one of the Kansas City non profit bike shops is founded by a female social worker, names of both individual and shop I forget.

Hi All 

Free Range Cycles in the Fremont Neighborhood of Seattle is owned by Shawna Williams and lead mechanic Nikki Mcthewson  ( both former Bike Works staff members and amazing people!!) and before Shawna it was owned for many years by Kathleen Emry.  See this article about their great work  in this  post in the Seattle bike blog https://www.seattlebikeblog.com/2020/02/14/how-free-range-cycles-works-every-day-to-become-a-more-and-more-welcoming-bike-shop/

Also this post in the Seattle Bike Blog is about a survey about how comfortable WTFNB folks feel at bike shops https://www.seattlebikeblog.com/2020/02/14/splain-survey-rates-seattle-bike-shops-by-how-comfortable-women-trans-femme-and-gender-nonconforming-people-feel-there/  this kind of survey is likely replicable in other cities

Sidesaddle in Vancouver BC !

The Bike Kitchen's program office is also operated by me, a non-dude ✌

Also a fun fact, when I was the founder of Bike Saviours Bicycle Collective in Arizona in 2007 there were ZERO non-dude bike mechanics employed anywhere in the entire city of Phoenix.
