Photo Gallery and Motorcycle Reviews Top 8 Things to DO at VTwin Mama If you're looking to participate with the VTwin Mama site,
this list will show you what we've got going on! Wednesday, March 3 Dear Readers, Many folks know that a few years back, Harley-Davidson added a specific section on its website for women and more recently published We Ride: Harley-Davidson's Guide for Women (it's a free download or can be found in print at dealerships). And I noted that in a recent email from Helmet Hair magazine that back in July 2009, BMW came out with a brochure for women titled "Riding is too much fun to be left to the guys.".Alas, I can't find that as a download, so I'm guessing one could find it at dealerships. Onward! – Mama Wednesday, March 3 Dear
VTwin Mama, DearJustin, I wish you continued happiness on your own journey! – Mama Friday, February 26 Thanks for all of the encouragement. It has been really
great and a pick-me-up to hear everyone’s stories. I am a nervous
wreck when I go out but it is fun!!!! On another note I have read many
ideas for changing the levers to reduce the distance from the handle/grip
to the clutch or brake lever to help people with small hands (extra small
gloves sometimes don’t fit). Unfortunately those solutions sited
in the emails don’t work with a 2009 Harley Sportster 883Low. The
head parts guy at the Harley dealership is having a tough time finding a
solution. So if anyone knows what levers will work with my kind of
bike I would appreciate it ideas!!!!
Held Over For Your Consideration ... New Iron On Bling Product from Becky Brown Dear Petra, I continue to sell my angel wing shirts but have recently designed something that is "one size fits all." It's an iron-on rhinestone crystal design with the words "Lady Rider" and then underneath is a heart with wings ... almost 1,000 crystals in clear and red .... and 8" by 8", so it's large enough for the front or back of shirts, denim jackets, etc. My Lady Bling website page shows the application on black, red, turquoise and purple. Easy iron on and machine washable. $11 each. Click on the picture below to see it "in action!" – Becky Dear Becky,
New Touring Book You Don't Want to Miss! Dear Readers, For many riders, dreaming of their first, or next, extended motorcycle trip eventually leads to seeking sources of inspiration and information. At the forefront of chronicling these adventures ... read the rest of my review! – Mama
Women's Ride Map ... New Ride Mentor Category! Dear Readers, So today I added a new pin category on the Women's Ride Map ... we show women's riding groups, individual riders, women's and general events ... and now have a new pink heart pin for Ride Mentors. These are gals who are willing to help a new rider in parking lot practice or road rides crafted for their skill level ... or whatever the Ride Mentor feels they can offer. A number of moons ago, Sherry Walrath, who runs the Lace Wheels - Women and Motorcycles site, noted she was starting a state-by-state mentor program, and I added her link on my Get Started page. I hopped on her site this morning and am happy to report that since our last email contact she's signed up a number of women ride mentors. Yahoo! It's an excellent idea as so many new women riders need a mentor but aren't always comfortable contacting a women's riding chapter or independent club ... or simply aren't near one. So, let's see what we can build together. Beneath the actual Ride Map you'll see the online submission form to join up! – Mama
