At the beginning of the Tour de France no black rider had ever won a stage in 111 years. This man has just won 3 Stages. Can we all just take a minute to appreciate what Biniam Girmay has done! 😘🙌🏿🫡💐❤️💛💚🖤🔥🔥🔥 #TdF2024 #biniamgirmay

#blackunitybikeride It only took us two weeks to organise this. Imagine what we can achieve with 6 months of planning. 🔥 Huge thanks to Met Police for taking care of the people by providing police escort. The cycling revolution is well & truly alive. We need this more than ever.

Explaining "Privilege" to Cyclists. As cyclists, we all face a constant battle for acceptance on the road. We have to constantly justify our existence. We have to justify why we deserve to be on the road with other road users like motor vehicles. Like & Share if you agree.

Being a fast rider does not make you a good rider. Imagine getting a Ferrari after you pass your driving test. 😬😱 At BCN we focus on the fundamentals to prepare our rider for any given situation. We teach our riders to make good decisions and remain composed at all times.

#tipsfromblackcyclist What to do when approaching a horse rider. 1. Slow down 2. Keep talking to let the horse and rider know that a human being is passing. 3. If you do not communicate, the horse will pick up the foreign sound of your flywheel and get spooked.

Cycling remains quiet, seemingly uninterested, at a time when nearly every popular sport has expressed some form of symbolic solidarity in support of Black Lives against the evil of white supremacy. Silence is complicity. @UCI_cycling @amaurysport @KevReza PLS SHARE. 🖤🙋‍♂️🙋🏿‍♂️🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏾‍♀️

Whenever black people ask 4 justice & equality, this is the usual response. 1. Stop complaining 2. Find an "appropriate" way to protest 3. Leave politics out of this 4. What about that over there People like that are not interested in change. They want to maintain their power.

Riding 40+ miles can be hard work if you do it alone. But it is a walk in the park when you do it with others. Grab a bike and come and seek adventures with us. ❤️ We meet every Sat at 08:00am in the main car park at Regents Park. #blackwomencyclists #blackwomenonbikes

@IntermarcheW @GrmayeBiniam @LeTour This remarkable young man has taken on a huge responsibility and made it look easy. What Bini has done will go down in history. But most importantly it is inspiring a lot of black and brown people to get into this wonderful sport. 😘❤️💛💚🖤🔥

Whilst this yr's edition of @LeTour has been historic, we cannot help but feel an opportunity was missed to take a stand against racism by the organisers and @UCI_cycling We want to praise @KevReza and the riders who made the timid symbolic gesture against RACISM. Salute. 👏🏿

We are hearing rumours that the riders will make a symbolic gesture at today's stage of the @LeTour in a united front against RACISM. You will all be remembered for being on the right side of history. 🖤❤ This is what solidarity looks like. @l_deignan and @teniel_campbell

History Makers! We entered cycling in 2018 w a goal to create space for black riders to get involved. We r now the biggest club in Europe for black riders. We made history today as the first black cycling club to host a race for a large group of mainly black riders in the UK.
