I created this meetup group in an attempt to connect with lesbians of Chicago who are not fully "out of the closet" so to speak. I want to create a support network for women who lead heterosexual lifestyles (i.e. married, divorced, separated, dating, single) but who are looking to open up and enjoy who they are with women in similar situations. I want us to have the opportunity to enjoy who we are and be comfortable in our own skin! Who wants to join me? :-)

Our group organizes casual rides for lesbian identified women. We discover different parts of Chicagoland with the emphasis on fun, exploration and light exercise. Rides will more often than not be in the slow range of 8 to 12 mph and will in most cases use off street trails, streets with bike lanes or side streets designated as bike routes. Occasional limited use of secondary roads and moderately busy city streets may occur. If more athletically inclined members wish to step up and lead individ …
