Hello, I was in your site today and find it to be very informative and the best part about it is
that I see there are other women riders out there with the same bike as mine (2003 Sportster 883 Hugger) and also women the same height as I am (4'10") yippee!).
Thank you and have a wonderful day.

« « Barbara & Her 650 Suzuki Savage » »
My name is Barbara, I live in Onalaska WI ... riding here is great,
lots of good places to ride. We ride along the Mississippi River here.
Ladies please make sure you are comfortable with your bike.
I have a 650 Suzuki Savage, it's been a great bike for me to learn on.
I've been riding for 5 years now, this is my 2nd Savage.
I really like the fact that I can touch the ground flat footed, it's a great
little bike for around town, and has great response when getting on
the highway.

Hello, I just came across your site while doing research on the Rebel 250
for a customer. I think it is very cool that you are offering web space for
women riders! I just recently opened an all women's motorcycle shop in
Sacramento, CA called "Go Moto". Well I just wanted to say hi and give
you props on your website.
The picture of me is at the Sacramento Raceway. I'm "burning out" and
getting ready to Drag Race on my 2003 Kawasaki ZX7R
Have a great day!

Can I tell you how excited I am???

« « Judy & her 1994 Harley Davidson Sportster » »
Hi, I've recently taken the Motorcycle Safety Course and bought the
Harley Sportster. Since I had not ridden in awhile I decided to
buy a Honda Rebel 250 to work on my skills and ease onto the
Harley a little slower. It seemed sensible and it was a good decision.
Both of my new bikes are used so I'm getting them tuned up and ready
for safe riding. I'll have a mechanic check them over.
I want to ride in Charity Rides and meet some ladies to ride with in
my area. It would be great to have their support.
Thanks for your website!

Hi! My husband gave me a great Mother's Day present this year
a week after completing my MSF course and getting my motorcycle
endorsement. She's a great-looking 2001 Yamaha V-Star 650....
beautiful, black, and chrome.
My husband is bewildered at my wanting to name "her." I'm still trying
to come up with a good one. I want you to know I do "NOT" ride in
such attire... I'm just posing on it here. I'm loving the feeling of riding
on my own and I can't believe I didn't do it sooner!

What a great site to have stumbled upon!!
I was surprised by my husband this past Friday, April 21st, 2006 for our one year
anniversary when he insisted I go with him to the local Harley Dealer to see what
they had in the way of saddle bags for my Yamaha. After waiting 45 minutes for
the
salesman, who I had met last fall when I so wanted the 2006 Softail Deluxe but
was
busy paying off our wedding.... When he finally got to us he wanted to show us some
new inventory and I was anxious to just see the bags and get out of there since I had
to primp for our big anniversary dinner.
Much to my surprise he led me to the bike I dreamed of and it was even in the color
I mentioned I would like. After sitting on it for about 2 minutes, my husband turned
to me and handed me the title and said "Its your, hon.
I ABOUT DIED!!! We both shed some tears. Little did I know he had ordered it for me
last November. I was unable to ride it home as I had flip flops on and no riding gear
with me but low and behold, my husband had sneaked HIS GEAR in the trunk of the
car so we could get it home. Needless to say, I had to get ready for a big night ahead
and was only able to sit on it in the driveway and then into the garage it went. It's been
pouring rain ever since.
I guess that's why they say "Patience is a virtue".

Note: Ladies, isn't this a wonderful bike story! We could use some more men like this

« « Aruna & Her 2001 Yamaha V Star 1100 » »
Hi there! Great site for encouraging new women riders.
I've had my license for a year and it's been great! Riding is a
meditation and mental vacation for me. I started with a '97
Yamaha Virago 535 and in 10 months moved up to a 2001
Yamaha V Star 1100.
I'm still getting used to the extra weight of the V Star but I love
how much sturdier it is on the freeway even though it's bulkier
around town. I like your advice of holding onto both bikes.
I believe in riding at your own pace and always sober.
It's great to see so many other smiling sisters!

I started riding at 52 - 5 years ago. I have a Custom 883.
I'm looking for a larger bike at this time. I wish that I would

Oh well - I have one now!

« « Terri & Her Harley Davidson Motorcycles » »
I absolutely LOVE to ride. I started riding mini bikes with my twin
brother back in the 70's. I graduated to dirt bikes and then got the fever
and bought my first Harley at age 18, a 1976 1200cc Superglide.
I stopped riding for awhile after I had 3 daughters, but once they were
grown I was back out on the road again. I bought an 883 XL Sportster in
May 2005 and just traded her in on a 2006 Softail Deluxe. Nothing compares
to this ride. My fiancé and I ride all the time. He has his own of course!
Keep the wind in your hair!

Hi, here comes a greeting from distant Sweden! I was happy to find a
site for female motorcyclists. In the 80's I had a Yamaha 400 cc V-Twin but
I had to sell it because of health problems. I can't take long trips but this
bike gets me around and I enjoy every day I'm able to ride it. The motor-
cycle season here is between April/May - Sept./October, depending on the
weather. In Sweden you have to wear a helmet when riding, it's a law and
insurance companies demand that you wear protective clothes, gloves and
boots. Joan will place a link for Kevlar-linen denim clothes from Australia on
her tip/news page.

« « Pennie & Her Honda Rebel 250 » »
I just wanted to say I enjoyed your web pages. I read with interest
your comment about even 30 mph. being too fast until you got used
to it. I can relate. I have only been riding 6 months and I did take a
Motorcycle Training Course.
This picture was taken when I got my bike last December.
I live on the West Coast, north of Vancouver. The highway up the coast
is twisty, turny, and just 2 lanes. Motorcyclists love it but it isn't very
forgiving if you make a mistake.
I read somewhere that (in BC anyway...) 54% of people taking the motor-
cycle training were women! They are also more cautious and actually
better riders... no doubt!

And .... Her Harley Davidson 2005 White Fat Boy
Thank you for having a place where I can come to talk Bike Stuff!
I bought my first bike, a Sportster XL 1200 on May 16, 2005. I did
not know how to ride it when I bought it but a friend taught me how
to ride. On June 18, 2005 I traded it in for a 2005 White Fat Boy.
I love to ride - I learned and upgraded in thirty days. I am changing
the pipes to Thunder Headers, white wall tires with 80 spokes rims,
hard case saddlebags I painted white, and I painted the 10" ape hanger
handlebars white, pilot grips and foot pegs. I will send you a new picture
as soon as the bike is finished. I was wondering if I will have a hard time
adjusting to the handlebars?

I love riding! I take solo trips and love the peace and solitude of riding and camping in secluded areas. I have had several different bikes, and absolutely love the bike I ride now, a 2003 Honda 750 Ace Shadow. It handles well in steep mountains and switchbacks as well as on the interstates.
The grandkids gave me a doggie. 5 months old Rocky is in the picture below. I have a pet backpack for him, and he loves riding. It feels really good having him snuggled up against my back.
I offer a haven, a biker hostel, for travelers. I am in Central Kentucky surrounded by beautiful roads and scenery. I ask everyone to stop and say hi to this gramma!

I'm a retired RN, practicing artist, working in oils & watercolors, painting realistic western art, country art and animal portraits. We live in the country with our cats, dogs, rabbits, chickens and alpaca.
My husband and I are both Christians and love the Lord.
My husband is the one who inspired me to try biking, bless
his heart.
It is so very important to have a mutual interest and this
is the perfect one for us. We are looking forward to many
wonderful cruises in the Pacific Northeast. Thanks for your

Hi! I am so excited to see a page of all women and their bikes! I have just purchased my first motorcycle. It is a 2003 Sportster 883 and I love it! I think I will eventually get a larger bike, but I love my Sportster so much. I got it to help me
cope with life during a divorce, and it is working great! I ride when my kids are with their father, and sometimes get my mom to watch the kids while I ride.
I call my bike "my boyfriend." It has been a blast so far, and I cannot wait to take the motorcycle safety class. I have heard many experienced riders say it is the best thing they have ever done.
Tomorrow I have an interview with the parts department manager at the Santa Maria Harley Dealership!
Thanks to all the ladies who have contributed to this site. I am glad to be in such company. I will send a picture of myself on my bike soon.

« « Nellie and her 2002 Harley Davidson Ultra Classic - her latest "best toy" » »
I had different bikes back in the 70's. I purchased a 350 Honda and a Midnight Maxum Yamaha. I had a child in 82 and one in 83. Then the bike was gone. I spent 30 years raising my children. I also let my motorcycle license expire thinking I would never have another bike.
After my children were grown I decided to get another bike.
First I purchased a Yam 1100, it was a great bike but I
found myself wanting to go farther and farther so I decided
to go to a touring bike. A friend of mine let me ride his
Electra Glide and I decided that was the bike for me.
So in August 2002 I bought an Ultra Classic and by August
2003 I had over 23,000 miles on the bike. This bike opened
up a whole new world for me. In one year I went from coast
to coast. I've been to places that I never thought I'd go.
It's in my blood and I just want MORE!!!
I've had horses, quads, and various other "toys" but I think
I have gotten more enjoyment from this one than all the others.

Hi friends and fellow bikers, just started a new job as
motor-clothes manager at Harley Davidson in San Marcos.
I have 25 years of experience in the clothing industry and
I am looking forward to this job. Now, I want everyone of
you to buy a motorcycle, kidding!
I would enjoy seeing you, stop in & say hello when you have
time. If anyone is serious about buying a bike I recommend
the Motorcycle Safety course. It is such a refresher on riding.
So, if you ever can't reach me on my cell phone, it's because it takes me a couple of min. to get it out of my pocket after riding. Be patient with me. I hope you enjoy the photo. I'm going to be staring at you till you get "your" Harley.
Happy Riding - VWags

"The Hogsisters"
We call ourselves the Hogsisters - We go on a 4-day trip once a year.
I just got back and have included a great picture of some of us and me
on my baby (that's me on the Fat Boy above this picture).
I went through 4 Harleys to get the one I really wanted.
It seems that every year a new woman jumps in the front seat. I love
to share the experience with them. I also go on one long trip each year
with my husband, Joe. We usually put on about 2000 miles.
Next year we're going to try California.

Hi,
I am glad I found this site. I got my license in August. I learned on this bike and took the safety class. It is a real thrill to see the road instead of the helmet! I love how men look at me when I am riding a bigger bike than they are. The Harley Ultra Classic is a bike a woman can ride as long as you can be flat footed when you are sitting.

Hi, I'm Carrie, and this is a photo of my '95 H-D
Custom Fat Boy. I learned to ride 3 years ago after
getting bored with the back seat. This is my 2nd bike. My first was a '95 H-D Heritage Softail, which I loved, but I caught the custom bike fever, and got this awesome Fat Boy.
Learning to ride on my own is probably the most positive thing I've ever done for myself. It's one hell of a confidence booster, and I highly recommend learning to any women who might be entertaining the idea.
Take a rider's course. They're offered in various locations. Check with a local dealer in your area to get more information, and just do it! I am a writer, a model, and a Sales Manager for a motorcycle magazine in the Mid-South. I try to attend as many major bike rallys and events as possible. If you
recognize me at an event, please stop & say 'hello'. I'd love to meet you

Heather and her Low Rider » » » » »
My buddy turned me on to this website. Here I am on my
2003 Dyna Low Rider!! I grew up riding with my torturous
older brothers and always loved motorcycles. I always loved
it when I had an old man with a bike and then realized how
much I was missing out on by not having one of my own. I
stopped in to the Harley shop and fell in love with an 883
Sportster.
I bought it and then took the motorcycle safety training class and got my license. The little Sportster got too small for me very quickly and I moved way up to the Low Rider and blew every one away! Guys are funny, once they find out that I ride, all they want to talk about is bikes! Even my Dad and I never had a great deal in common but he loves to talk bikes with me.
I love all bikes and will be getting a BMW as well one of these days. So, all you ladies out there I say - GO FOR IT!!
There is nothing more awesome than getting out there and being strong and independent. Don't start with too small of a bike if you are going to be a serious rider. And ALWAYS RIDE SOBER.. I like to have fun just like everyone but I NEVER EVER party and ride.
You need to be SHARP BABY!
