Back in 2010, when we started the SkirtBike™ project, almost
all media content was about cycling as a sport, considering a heroic act to
bike to work on the streets of Bucharest, especially as a female in a chic
outfit. At the first SkirtBike™ , we had only 150 participants, that
overcome the bad weather, but people got he message right and the following
year, we had about 300 women and a few men wearing kilts proudly riding
together. Last year, 2000 women joined the SkirtBike movement in 11
different cities in Romania, making it a national event.
