Motorcycle women take notice. It’s that time of year again. It’s time to register for the women’s motorcycle Harley Davidson Daytona Women’s ride.

The reason for Harley Davidson Daytona Women’s ride is to raise money for MDA and to celebrate women that ride motorcycles. Last year women that rode in the event raised $67,000.00 for MDA.

Registration is now open for the 2009 ride that begins on Tuesday, March 3rd. There is a limited 500 female Harley or Buell riders eligible to register. Read the rest of this entry »

Style is often a key consideration in choosing a pair of motorcycle boots for women, although, a well-fitted motorcycle boot with a non-skid sole and firm ankle support should be your first consideration.

The right motorcycle riding gear for women can make a stylish statement; the different styles of women’s motorcycle boots
are actually available for various types of riding.

Woman biker style boots have differences you should know. Street, or touring, motorcycle boots differ from racing boots for protection they provide. Even women’s touring style motorcycle boots range from short women’s boots to those that come more than a foot up the leg. Read the rest of this entry »

Can you believe it biker girl; it’s that time of year again. It’s time to move the old man’s Pan Head out of the way to make room for your Christmas tree.

Now that you have set out the nativity scene, the garland and trimmed the tree, the next thing you need is gifts to put under the tree.

Knowing what to get your motorcycle women or biker man for Christmas is a task that requires a great deal of thought. Let alone the hassle of going to Wal-Mart or the Mall, fighting the hoards of pushy shoppers and dealing with rude sales people.

Might I suggest shopping for your special motorcycle guy or gal online? A great and very affordable gift idea that you can find on line for any biker is motorcycle accessories or motorcycle apparel. Read the rest of this entry »

What is the best motorcycle for women?

I have talked to a great number of motorcycle women and one thing is for sure, all of the biker women that I spoke with agree to disagree on one thing. That one thing is, what is the best motorcycle for women. Women Harley riders will tell you that Harley Davidson is the only way to go. Women that ride a sport bike will tell you a crotch rocket is the answer. While other women riders, say they love their metric cruisers and would not change for the world. Because I have gotten numerous emails asking me what the best motorcycle for a woman is, and with all of the different opinions on what motorcycles women are riding, I though Id do a bit of research of my own and this is what I found.

According to women polled and dealer sales, the top ten motorcycles for women are: Read the rest of this entry »

A while ago, we asked all of you biker women out there, if you had any interesting stories. As always you motorcycle girls have stepped up and sent us some wonderful articles and stories about women on motorcycles. Over the next few months, we will be posting some of the wonderful women motorcycle rider stories you have graciously email in to us, starting with an article by Lisa Desrosier of Innovative Business Services.

Too short, too old, too cold, too “female”….What’s your excuse?

As a woman motorcycle rider and the owner of Lace Wheels - Motorcycles and women, I have always dreamed of riding my motorcycle to Laconia bike week. So on Saturday  June 14 2008, opening day of Laconia bike week, and the only day it did not rain, I jumped on my bike and finally realized my dream.

I am fortunate enough to live just about an hour and twenty-minute ride away from Laconia New Hampshire in the town of Gorham Maine. It is a straight shot from my front door down Route 25; formally known as Ossipee Trail, turn left at Meredith New Hampshire, cruise 106 at a stop and go pace for about 20 minutes and your there.

This is a call to action for every woman that rides a motorcycle.

“Lace Wheels Motorcycles and Women” is looking for women that ride their own motorcycle to help a sister out and become a Mentor. We have openings in every city and state in the US and Canada.  It is easy and only involves a little time and some practical motorcycle riding ability.  Our women and motorcycle mentor program is a source for women motorcyclists to meet like minded women that ride and to help those that can’t.

If you have gone through a certified motorcycle safety course and can help a woman that is willing we need you, although this is not a requirement to becoming a mentor.

What is a requirement though is the willingness to become a friend and help other women find the path of freedom to the open road.

How Motorcycles and Women’s mentor program works is, you volunteer to be a mentor, send us your email address, the State you live in and the city or town you are closest to. We then list your name, the city and state where you live on our mentor’s page for that state. Then when a woman is looking for a friend, riding buddy and/or mentor from your area she will make contact buy emailing you.

If you would like more information about our mentor program, or to be added and have your email places in “Lace Wheels – Motorcycles and Women’s” mentor pages and become a mentor, please send me, Sherry Walrath an email at svaughan2@maine.rr.com

I have received emails from a few women worried about Lace Wheels – Motorcycles and Women’s mentor program not being a certified motorcycle riding or safety course.

I want to take a few moments to clarify a few things about our women’s motorcycle mentor program.

We started our mentor program for women that want to get off the back and get their own ride. We are not a replacement for a good motorcycle riding school or course and we do not make any claim to be. What we are is an outlet for a women wanting to learn to ride a motorcycle, to get hooked up with an experienced woman that rides to help in the over all process of finding a riding school or course, get certified, finding the right motorcycle and a good riding buddy after all is said and done.
