Salute to Women Riders
In 1990 only 3% of motorcyclists were women. Today that statistic is 23%, making women the largest growing demographic in the motorcycle industry for the past 20 years. Let’s keep it up ladies…at this rate it won’t be long before we reach 50/50 status!
May is Women Riders Month, so get the girls together and get out there and ride as much as you can! I personally put 2500 miles on my bike last month, and I plan to make that a trend.
Especially don’t forget about International Female Ride Day on Friday, May 7th. Ride to work, ride to the sub shop, practice figure-8’s in an empty parking lot, or pack your saddlebags and head out for a weekend trip…just get out there and enjoy some 2-wheel therapy from the stresses of your every day life.
Women riders ROCK! And we’re only gonna get better! 🙂
That’s a great new stat and I hope more join in for getting that stat higher!
Thanks for reminding me! I’ll help put the word out, and I plan to be ridin’ Friday! WooHoo!
woohoo!!! lets ride 🙂
2 wheel therapy – none better!
Amen to that! Ever since I started paying attention to the percentage of women riders, I’ve giggled quietly to myself that we need a “percent” patch. This year we can be “23 percenters”! 🙂
