Sorella Spa Girls at the Halloween CX race. What, you've never seen women race bikes in towels and avocado mask before?

 
En route to Reach the Beach. See, we're not all about racing ;-) more photos.

More quotes from some famous, and not-so-famous, cyclists.

We won, we won!

It's finally official. Sorella Forte are the proud winners of the first ever Cross Crusade Team competition. It was a fun battle with Hammer Velo and Mt. View for the first several weeks, but our eventual domination was to much for those co-od teams. We received the trophy (shown above) at the season end awards party. Only Brad and Co. would think of combining a bike frame and a giant wine bottle. The trophy is amazing, but the real prize, the grand doodie of them all, is our very own porta potty for the entire CC season next year!

About Sorella Forte

Sorella Forte – Italian for 'Strong Sister' – is a women's cycling club based in Portland, Oregon.

The club is open to all women who share a passion for riding a bike — ANY bike. We support women who want to race as well as recreational riders looking for others who want to ride on a regular basis. We have several Junior members now, too, which is very exciting!

Team Mission Statement

We met each other riding our bikes and soon realized that we share a common objective: to enrich our physical and mental well-being and promote women’s health and fitness through recreational and competitive cycling. It was a natural step for us to form our own team and persue this objective together.

We're a good sized club (50+) but there is always room for more like-minded cycling junkies who are passionate about riding bikes.
