Women And Motorcycling 

Share

Did your mother help get you on two wheels? Was she an avid rider herself? Does your wife or partner ride along with you, either on her own bike or on the back, nearly everywhere you go? The Women & Motorcycling exhibit recognizes the accomplishments of the individuals who furthered the cause of women in motorcycling from 1900 to today.

Included in the exhibit is a general historical timeline, a timeline of women's events in history and a timeline of women's motorcycling events in history. In addition to featuring the pioneers of women in motorcycling, the exhibit recognizes women motorcycle competitors, women in the motorcycle industry, women in motorcycling government relations, women competitors, women in motorcycle journalism, women in motorcycle training and rider education, and women's motorcycling organizations.
