 Fast and Fabulous Cycling Clubfastnfab.org New York, New York Bicycling Founded: 1994 Bicycling is a sport that can involve a lot of attitude — my bike or my gear is nicer than yours, I can go faster than you can. Some of that attitude will always be about what the slower/less-well-attired/less expensively bicycled person perceives, but we try to overcome “attitude” and make the sport open to anyone with a bike and a helmet. We do this with rides of varying distance and ability, but we also promote events that don’t require a bike at all – dinners, potlucks, movie outings, etc., events that allow people to get to know the crowd and try to figure out where they fit in, without the anxiety of “can I keep up?” |  Minneapolis Mayhem Rugby Football Clubmayhemrfc.com Minneapolis, Minnesota Rugby Founded: 2005 Mayhem RFC is one of the nation’s few male teams that makes rugby accessible to the GLBT community. In our short existence, we’ve grown from a group of guys who knew nothing about rugby to a club that is competitive with teams we’ve faced from across the country and around the world. We’ve been selected as hosts for the Bingham Cup 2010, the Gay Rugby World Championships and have been named Minneapolis’ 2008 GLBT Sports Team of Year. But it doesn’t end with rugby. We’re active in the gay, athletic and local communities. We’re brothers – on and off the field. The best part about playing rugby is that we get to play together. And nothing can compare to the feeling of brotherhood. |
