Georgena Terry, Bike Building Pioneer, Gives it Straight to Women’s Forum

Three decades ago, Georgena Terry broke open many of the discussions we had today at the National Women’s Bicycling Forum with a simple but revolutionary act: building bicycles specifically for women.

The industry trailblazer joined us at the Forum today as the opening keynote speaker, captivating the audience with her no-holds-barred opinions and charming humor.

Below, watch her opening address to the crowd here in Washington, D.C., and an engaging (and sometimes hilarious) sit-down discussion with fellow female bike builder, Natalie Ramsland, Founder of Sweetpea Bicycles.

And stay tuned tomorrow for more videos and recaps from the Women’s Forum!
