How We Got Here
I
was lucky as a child to have a father that taught "his
girls" that they could do or be whatever they wanted
in life. He grew up riding Harleys and was more than happy
to teach me to ride at an early age. When Santa brought me
my first dirt bike, no trail or dirt road was safe from me.
I rode for hours and delighted in the pleasure of being on
a motorcycle (to this day I still get the same feeling every
time I ride). From dirt bikes, I started riding cruisers
to get back and forth to school but stopped for a while when
I graduated. The call to ride is strong and I soon found
myself needing to ride again. Let's face it, an hour on a
motorcycle in the mountains makes a week of stress melt away.
I purchased another cruiser which I love but found myself
wanting to try out a sportbike. I had heard good things about
the Suzuki Katana so I checked them out. Soon I was hooked,
I still have my cruiser but I enjoy riding my Suzuki GSX-R
every chance I get.
I have always ridden with protective gear but I always found
it tough to find motorcycle gear specifically made for women!
In my search for women's gear, I found Judy and She Rides.
Like everyone else she met, Judy and I became friends and
I even helped out at several of her shows. When Judy was
given an opportunity she couldn't resist, I was happy to
buy She Rides from her and continue providing women with
stylish apparel that provides proper fitting protection,
protection that fits the female’s body, protection
that is needed when riding, whatever the riding style. Like
Judy, I will continue to look for new products that are competitive
in cost without sacrificing the quality and craftsmanship.
I will also continue to search for quality manufacturers
and distributors that share my goals and values for the female
rider and passenger with a resulting goal of the ability
to give women more options and provide the best in women's
motorcycle apparel and accessories.
At She-Rides®, you will find a line of leather and textile
clothing, boots, gloves, and accessories that will appeal
to every style of rider. The clothing is made and sized for
the female, remaining true to my beliefs, goals, and promise
of providing true feminine apparel.
My sole purpose and objective is for She-Rides® to be
a vehicle for the female riders and passengers, to know they
have options when it comes to motorcycle apparel and to provide
a network of resources for the female motorcyclist that prefers
options in her life.
