Men Aren't the only Bikers in the Family. Hail Women Motorcycle Riders!
Did you know female motorcycle riders are an increasing population in the US? It's true. According to the Motorcycle Industry Council out of of the 2.5 million people who rode motorcycles in the US in 2008, 23% of them were women. So why this increased change?
Well, we read recently on Her Motorcycle, a comprehensive website for women bikers, that bikes give women a real sense of freedom and exhilaration. Not to mention women who ride have a stronger feeling of confidence and camaraderie. Here’s some more insight on women bikers we learned:
- 56.7% of women motorcyclists are married
- 28% of women motorcyclists have a college or post graduate degree
- 35% of women motorcyclists hold a technical/professional job
- 42 is the median age of women motorcyclists, up from 38
The next time you pass a group of riders on the road, take a close look at who's leading the pack. We be it's a woman.
