There's a nice, feel good, story on the BBC website about a Sudanese refugee taking up cycling in Glasgow I thought I'd share - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ckg3nz69gx6o
I had no idea that there were countries where it was forbidden for women to cycle!
I tried to help a lady from a similar situation. Remember being equally as shocked to learn she wasn't allowed to ride. Despite my and her best efforts she just couldn't get the hang of it though. Would constantly veer off to the right. Was gutted for her. I do hope she kept practising and got it in the end.
