Bio
Ruth Paterson has enjoyed gliding around Melbourne on bicycles since she was at uni. Bikes give Ruth a great sense of freedom - particularly to move about town safely and independently late at night. Ruth sometimes switches her $60 city bike for her expensive 'toy' - a mountain bike. Ruth has studied, worked and played in Melbourne, Canberra, Canada, England and Pakistan and is currently a public servant with State Government. Ruth has recently been elected to the board of Bicycle Victoria where she hopes to contribute to getting more people cycling, more often. Ruth will be co-presenting this session with some young(er) women who enjoy riding around town.
