Women On Wheels® was founded in California by an avid woman motorcyclist in 1982. Its purpose was,
and still is, to unite all women motorcycle enthusiasts, whether they ride their own machine, are motorcycle
passengers or enthusiasts, or future motorcyclists. WOW members are located throughout the United
States, Canada, and several other countries. WOW has over 3500 members and is growing strong!
Who
WOW has riders in their teens, in their eighties, and every age in between! WOW's focus is on the
members and the lifestyle of motorcycling, rather than on the machine. WOW members enjoy every make
and model of motorcycle imaginable -- it's not what we ride that's important, but rather the fact that we
enjoy riding to begin with!
We're for beginners and veterans; we're for people from all walks of life; we're for motorcycle commuters,
racers, tourers, etc.
Women On Wheels® is a family-oriented organization and encourages family members to become involved
through our support membership for spouses/significant others and our child membership for future riders.
Sometimes we feel like one big family ourselves. And when one of us is called back home, "we all" feel it.
What
WOW members experience the fun and excitement of riding together, supporting each other, socializing,
sharing adventures, and helping special charities -- all while projecting a brighter image of motorcycling.
In fact, promoting a positive image of motorcyclists to the non-motorcycling public is a top priority. Women
On Wheels® was awarded the Hazel Kolb Brighter Image Award in 1993, by the American Motorcyclist
Association -- an honor we're all especially proud of!
It's about ... riding ... laughing ... eating ... friends ... learning ... supporting and helping one another ...
participating with chapters ... fun ... fund raising for needy and worthwhile projects ... growing ... sharing ...
WOW also aims to meet the following goals:
- Assist the motorcycling community and the public at large in becoming aware that women are
serious motorcyclists and deserve recognition as such. - Encourage further developments within the motorcycle industry to meet women's needs for
equipment, clothing and accessories. - Make available information on safe riding techniques, and encourage participation in motorcycle
safety courses. - Promote a positive image of motorcyclists, and of women as motorcyclists, through educating the
news media and the general public, thereby challenging the untrue stereotypes that are commonly
presented - Enhance the sheer enjoyment of motorcycling, and encourage women by showing them they have
limitless potential and can accomplish any goal or dream.
