The 2010 International Female Ride Day is just a week away and women all over the world are preparing for the global occasion that has women riders everywhere getting out on their motorcycle on this one day and riding. More countries are expected to join in and more women are setting up activities for Friday May 7th. "The word continues to spread and women enthusiastically are getting ready to ride and unite on this synchronized day around the world," says Vicki Gray, the founder of MOTORESS, the group that started International Female Ride Day.
For this, the 4th annual event, Vicki says she's noticed an increase in the recognition of the Female Ride Day among the motorcycle industry around the world. "The popularity of this event comes from the concept and the fact that it invites women to ride no matter what brand, style or type of motorcycle. This gives the industry an opportunity to share its support and get involved.
 Women motorcyclists gather together for a ride. As before, participants will be able to upload and
send in their picture to MOTORESS or post them on the Facebook group and
event page. A free souvenir will be sent to first 100 photos received.
Participants can also go the MOTORESS Facebook group or event page to
post their plans for May 7 while networking with others. In addition,
women will be able to order the special 2010 Female Ride Day T-shirt as a
souvenir online. This year the T-shirt will be in a natural bamboo
fabric, the latest trend in eco-friendly fabrics.
At its inception in 2007, the campaign became an
immediate success as women embraced the chance to participate.
International Female Ride Day fever significantly magnifies each year
and 2010 expects to host more riders and participants than the previous
years. Canada, United States, Australia, England, The Netherlands,
Greece, Italy, Poland, Israel, Qatar and Denmark as well as other
countries will again be contributing to the campaign in compelling
numbers. For more information, visit Motoress.com  The camaraderie of women riding together. Sport bike, cruiser, scooter, off-road, touring or competition, regardless of what type or style of motorcycle, International Female Ride Day makes one simple request of women -- just
ride. The concept has assembled its power and participation in this
simple, globally synchronized theme linking the chain of women through
the shared activity of motorcycling. This one day is set aside to
celebrate and highlight the many numbers of women who share a passion
for the sport. The fact that every rider participating is a role model
for women who have not yet taken their first step to enjoy motorcycling,
is a role worth embracing. |
