Ride for Pride and Inclusivity

To support LGBTQ+ inclusivity in cycling during Pride Month, Porn Pedallers, the adult industry cycling club, is calling on friends and fans alike to come together for a ‘Pride Ride’ on Saturday 13 June.

Love, alliance and inclusivity

PPCC joins Cycling UK, Emily Chappell and Pride Out in their call to get people out on their bikes nationwide on Saturday to spread a socially-distanced message of love, alliance and inclusivity.

‘Our Pride Ride’ is open to everyone. No bike, distance, or level of sporting endeavour is stipulated. So, dust off your boneshaker, pump up the tyres and hit the road in rainbow colours… In line with current guidance, Porn Pedallers is simply asking people to ride solo or in small socially-distanced groups. Everyone is encouraged to post their ride to social media with the hashtags #OurPrideRide #RideTheRibbon4Pride.

Saturday’s event follows on from the club’s successful ‘Ride The Ribbon’ World AIDS Day fundraiser and sees Porn Pedallers renew its commitment to leading HIV charity, Terrence Higgins Trust. Last year, PPCC rode an ambitious season of endurance events and raised £15,000 for THT to promote better sexual health for all, fight HIV stigma and raise awareness of the fact that people on effective treatment can’t pass it on.

“All of us at Terrence Higgins Trust are so very grateful to the Porn Pedallers for their consistent support – needed more than ever in the current climate!” says Terrence Higgins Trust CEO, Ian Green.

The porn peloton, and cycling pornstar Tindra Frost, will also be ‘Riding The Ribbon 4 Pride’ on virtual cycling platform, Zwift, at 18.00 BST on Saturday 13 June.

Follow Chris Ratcliff (PPCC) on Zwift for an open invitation to join the meetup. The Zwift ride will be streamed live on Twitch.

All PPCC events are generously supported by the club’s sponsors. You can support their fundraising efforts by making a donation.
