This is the place Lady Riders come first to find the quality motorcycle gear they need. Our goal is to offer leather motorcycle jackets, chaps and pants, leather vests, women's biker boots, motorcycle helmets and accessories that will keep you safe on the road while allowing you to express your individualism as a confident woman on a motorcycle. No more searching through men's gear to find something that comes close to fitting. This is women's gear in women's sizes from XS to 5XL.
Betty (Rosann) is riding a motorbike …around the world (with Dan)…a little bit at at time…mostly in 3 month bites. (one of us has to work) The story is loosely about Betty…travelling through countries and little towns…bypassing big cities and big highways (as much as possible).
Encouraged by friends, work mates, complete strangers and family…we write a little bit of story each day…take a few photos…the odd movie…a few maps and other stuff (bad jokes and inappropriate language) added on as well.
Mostly, the story is easy to understand…except for the little bits of Tasmanian peculiar language and spelling……….just ignore these bits.
While up mountains at 5000m, it is unwise to make massive, life-changing plans. The lack of oxygen may well be affecting you. So if you decide suddenly to go on a round-the-world adventure on a 21yr old motorbike for a year or more, think Very Carefully. Or just do it.
I found myself cold, windswept and out in the middle of nowhere, Nevada but the sunset glowing ochre and violet, allowed me confirmation of why I was motorcycling solo on yet another back road journey.
India on an Enfield, A Woman's Motorcycle Adventure. "I'd only ridden mopeds around London when I decided to travel around the Indian subcontinent on an Enfield 500cc for nearly a year. My journey took me through the mayhem of Delhi traffic, the deserts of Rajasthan, the tip of India, the remote tracks of Nepal and the eerie Himalayan barrenness of Ladakh."
"Our Mission: To unite all women motorcycle enthusiasts for recreation, education, mutual support, recognition, and to promote a positive image of motorcycling." Has an online magazine page, some merchandise, and links.
