Hello fans of Bicycling Betties! We are a team of riders who will ride from San Francisco to LA in 2016. As part of our fundraising activities, we are organizing a pin-up contest in the search for Miss Bicycling Betty 2016 to represent our team! We’ll be holding a two-part contest across two separate events to select the Pin-Up Betty that best embodies the spirit of the pin-up and combines it with a flair for cycling.

The winner, Miss Bicycling Betty 2016, will be featured on a limited release bottle of wine and the three finalists will receive a gift package from our sponsors. (Prize packages to be determined)

We are looking for individuals who possess beauty, inside and out. If you have an interest in pin-up, want to be part of a fun experience and join a great community of people, we encourage you to submit an application to be Miss Bicycling Betty 2016! No experience necessary.
