------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Women Trans Femme (WTF) hours are open to anyone who self-identifies as female, transgender, femme, genderqueer, or feels that their socialization as one or more of those identities has impeded their participation in bicycle mechanics.

WTF is not about placing judgements on bodies. It is about self-identification.

WTF hours seeks to provide a space that fosters the free expression of gender identity and that resists the cis-male bike culture that often dominates this space

If you are not WTF identified
Respect the space: Come during our regular hours, don’t ask for an exception, and don’t hang around the entrance during WTF hours.
Respect People: During Bike Church’s regular hours, treat all mechanics regardless of their identities with dignity and respect.
Be in Solidarity: Educate yourself about issues that effect women, trans, and gender non-comforming folks and imagine ways in which you can take part in making the world more liveable for everybody.

***we strive to make our space accessible to all kinds of bodies, ages and abilities. If you need specific accommodations or have any concerns about the space/how it functions, please email us at [email protected]
