[TheThinkTank] Women and Trans Night

Hey Bike Shops, Does anyone else hold a Women and Trans night or Ladies' night? I know Plan B does. We had a weekly one last summer and will be having another this summer. The women who have held the shift have found it effective to keep the shift exclusive, closed to male-bodied masculine-identifying people. We have had a backlash from one of our members, who accuses us of sexism, discrimination, and injustice. We have gotten some incomplete and bad press.

Please let me know if you hold a shift like this one, exclusive or not, and what you have done about any complaints your membership or community has had.

Thanks, Colin Gunn Freeride Montpelier Montpelier, VT www.freeridemontpelier.org
