<p>I volunteer with a Utrecht non-profit De Fietsmeesters to help teach adults how to bike. Students are almost always women, and mostly new immigrants. There are 16 new riders in this class, and 4 of us volunteers.</p><p>By the end of 10 weeks almost everyone is successfully biking on the road — it's so empowering!</p><p><a href="/tags/utrecht/" rel="tag">#utrecht</a> <a href="/tags/biketooter/" rel="tag">#bikeTooter</a></p>
