Description

"If you haven't ridden a bike, then you don't know how powerful they are. And I welcome anybody and celebrate anybody who you somehow uses bikes as a tool for change." — Zahra Alabanza, Radical Adventure Riders

Today we spoke with Zahra Alabanza, organizer at Radical Adventure Riders (RAR) about the organization's beginnings, purposefully creating a space within cycling for FTWNB and BIPOC, leaning into community resources, and so much more. RAR has made itself known within cycling as a resource for group rides to be radically inclusive.

Show notes:

  • Zahra's reference to Erykah Badu's phrase, "over-lover" is from the song Out My Mind, Just In Time
  • Radical Adventure Riders maintains a resource list on their website
  • You can pick up your own sweet, sweet Lisa Frank-inspired RAR merch in their online store
  • Grab your own digital copy of their Group Ride Guide here ($11)
  • And finally keep your eyes peeled for their 2025 updates by following them on Instagram: @radical.adventure.riders
