Ladies perspective on biker chicks!

[Danae]

Technically I'm not a biker chick, I only have a scooter lol!
Reactions from my friends include concern and admiration towards getting a bike and licence

[Lula]

I get a few stares especially when I am on some of the bigger test bikes.
I have also received a few side looks from other woman thinking I must be crazy to be riding such a motorbike.

Got lots of stares by men when I was out with the 09 R1 and CBR and noticed that they would only approach the male I was with to ask about the bikes. I guess it takes time for somethings to change but the world will just have to get used to it!

I've just done over a 1000km as "Bitch on the back" It was amusing that most of the time onlookers were surprised when I climbed on the back. But only after she told me I could of course.

I love going for rides with my wife (she's got a bright red ZZR), the double takes we get when we pull up! She seems to only get respect from other girls though, esp as her bike's looks nicer than mine!

I don't really give a rats arse what people think of me riding.

Have had a few older gentlemen come up to me at petrol stations and say "Good onya girlie" or they just look at me with a mixture of shock and fascination, which causes me to check that all zips and body parts are in their rightful place.

I recall a ride one sunny day and quick stop off at the gas station on the way home. I think I made some comment about needing to get home to get some washing on the line...that really challenged some guy standing on the forecourt he looked at me like - you can ride but you chose to go home to hang washing...I replied with something along the lines of me bras and undies don't wash and dry themselves ya know!

I bet $20 that there'll be an article in the news of 'first arab woman motorbike rider', and damn proud of it too!

Hey is that legal over there and where are your pics of you in leathers?

[merv]

And I really dont care what anyone thinks about me (a girl) riding, my family think its cool. My kids think its awesome and I love riding and thats all that matters.

... and we all know you look damn good doing it haha

+1

pics or it didn't happen

[merv]

Yeah well I was going by the "LOL, tho i think i look damn hot in my leathers " comment and I was thinking we would get a chance to judge.

You do have to watch the whole hair out the back of the helmet thing though. I got longish hair atm and have stated to notice ppl starting to stare when I pull up at uni and such... Hopefully they would have heard the gixxa howling as I downshifted to slow down though.

If a girl/woman has a bike thats great. Awesome when she can keep up wh the boys too. Big ups to all of yous.

I had a good laugh when my boyfriend and I were gearing up, helmets and gloves on with a few spectators watching. There where surprised faces as he hopped on the back, he said he got a few 'thumbs up' as we rode off.

Mmm yeah had a few funny looks when I picked up gatch from the train station, but I think that was mainly because he thought it would be funny to hump me when stopped at the lights, cheeky fucken shit
