“Thanks for setting up the WOW page! I came across it yesterday after I spoke to my dad on the phone and he told me how worried he is about me cycling all alone in a country that is so far from home (Switzerland is my home) and without even having an itinerary… Confused I was googling something like “women cycling alone” and I found you crazy people and didn’t feel THAT crazy anymore. Because of the links on this page I had the chance to read some inspiring blogs. So thank you for that!”

“A couple of years ago I replaced my usual backpack with bicycle panniers as I decided to cycle home from Paris. As I eventually hit the brakes in the Swedish city of Gothenburg a new bicycle plan had emerged, trans-american journey. As a journalist some of theses journeys have been published as articles regarding the situation of Beijing, radio reports from the townships in South Africa and photographs from the top of Kilimanjaro.” Hanna Jackobson

“I have cycled alone in Canada, the United States, England, and most recently, a one week trip in the Peruvian Andes.  I was suffering from pre-departure nerves and the discouragement of friends and family before setting off to Peru.  I got a lot of courage from the WOW website; it was inspiring to discover so many other lady cyclists.”  Elizabeth Walsh
