Women have come a long way in cycling. But they still have a ways to go.

Meet cyclist and inclusion advocate Anna Affias, who is breaking down barriers for women.

“After noticing how few women participated in criterium racing, Anna created the STKD (stoked) Racing Squad, a team that champions inclusivity and empowers women to challenge the status quo and push cycling industry norms,” explained Schwinn.

Affias leads the STKD Racing Squad, a Category 3 racing team based in Chicago. Meet the full team and learn more here.
