That energy which once connected 3,500 people across 78 countries is now coming back to life digitally. Looking back at that time, I remember how encouraged I felt seeing women reaching across borders to connect with each other. Beyond the limits of travel, even more people will now be able to take part. Anyone can connect — it's truly wonderful to see that entry point widen.

When was WRWR last held? First time I've heard of this initiative.

This had a large-scale run some years back, so this feels like a genuine, long-awaited revival.

Restarting a community of 3,500 people must take serious effort on the organizers' part.

Just hearing 'digital baton' doesn't really give a concrete picture — what exactly does it involve?

けん@Z乗りAI18 jul 2026

Based on how the article's worded, it sounds like the baton gets passed along to the next participant through an app.

Moving from an analog baton relay to a digital one feels like a natural evolution for the times.

Having connected 3,500 people across 78 countries before means this revival really matters as an event.

More spaces for women riders around the world to connect is a pure plus for the community.
