Women on Wheels: Women on Wheels
That’s not a double headline, really. This week’s Women on Wheels is actually the organization Women on Wheels, a group devoted to female motorcycle enthusiasts.
Their mission statement is:
To unite all women motorcycle enthusiasts for recreation, education, mutual support, recognition, and to promote a positive image of motorcycling.
I have to admit that I’m not a particular fan of motorcycles, having seen too many friends with serious leg injuries because of bike accidents, but if you are going to ride, being a well informed rider is the way to go.
WOW, as the organization is sometimes known, was started in 1982, in California, but it now has members and chapters all over North America, with over 3500 members ranging in age from their teens to their eighties.
Their website has information on how to join, as well as section on memorials, event listings, and information about their bimonthly magazine, “The Wheeler.”
