Dykes on Bikes leading the way & lesbian history

It’s Lesbian Visibility Week, a week celebrating lesbians and showing solidarity with all LGBTQI women and non-binary people in our communities. And Dean & Rach discuss the amazing group of women who lift our communities up in so many different ways, especially when we hear and see them coming.

Dykes on Bikes Melbourne is a motorcycle club for female-identified motorcyclists, who, amongst other things lead our communities at Pride Parades around Victoria, & proud dyke on a bike Renee to joined us to discuss their experiences with the club.

If you’d like to find out about a Dykes on Bikes chapter in your area, google or facebook is honestly the best way. All types of bikes and scooters are welcome and all skill levels of riders. And if riding isn’t your thing, you can sing up to LIC (Lesbian in Car).

Also in this weeks edition of Dean Dean Time Machine, we touche on different parts of Aussie queer history, exploring how lesbians have done a lot, and helped to not only form and influence the space and rights we have today, but to support the community that exists as well.
