Empowering More Women to Ride into the Future
She’s Electric is a growing national campaign from Loud Mobility, running since 2024, with a mission to enable and inspire more women to use e-bikes and e-cargo bikes for everyday transport.
In 2025, we’re excited to bring She’s Electric to Gloucestershire for the first time, in partnership with Gloucestershire County Council’s Think Travel Team. This new local programme will see a series of engaging, community-focused events rolled out across the county—designed to empower more women to cycle regularly, confidently, and joyfully.

Together, we can build a more equitable, low-carbon transport future—one ride at a time.
Why Now? While more people are cycling than ever, women remain underrepresented, particularly when it comes to using bikes for transport, errands, or family trips. Common barriers include safety concerns, lack of confidence, and access to the right equipment.
She’s Electric addresses these head-on, with engaging local events designed to help women experience how e-cycles can fit into real, everyday life.
A Better Ride: Gloucestershire’s Cycle Spine A key enabler of this campaign is the Gloucestershire Cycle Spine—a major new cycling infrastructure project connecting Cheltenham and Gloucester with a safe, continuous cycle route.
The Cycle Spine is a game-changer for local transport, offering safer, more accessible options for everyday cycling. It’s designed to support all kinds of riders, including families, beginners, and e-bike users—making this the perfect moment to empower more women to ride confidently and regularly.
Who We Are She’s Electric is delivered by Loud Mobility, a social enterprise committed to making transport systems more inclusive, sustainable, and community-focused. We collaborate with councils, partners and local residents to co-create positive change—helping people move beyond car dependency.
