Why is Tour De Las Chingonas A Women (LGBTQA+) Only Bike Ride?
Chingona Race Productions’ goal is to build a world of nonjudgmental racing experiences for the everyday female (LGBTQA+) athlete. We envision a day where all women (LGBTQA+) are empowered to participate in sports. TDLC is an inclusive, safe space that encourages and supports all women cyclists (LGBTQA+). We welcome cis and trans women, femme, and non-binary folks. Y’all means all!
