Title: International Female Ride Day
Post by: DriftinGirl on February 11, 2014, 12:51:38 PM
The theme of this day, Saturday May 3, 2014, is JUST RIDE. It is a day devoted to female riders and rides around the world. This is the 8th year. Here in Nova Scotia it will be the second year of participation. Last year ladies from the 3 maritime provinces, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island met and rode a circuit to PEI. Lots of activities...most sponsored by bike dealerships...such as BBQ suppers, great sales, prizes, etc. This year we plan to make it truly international by riding into Maine where a Vetrans Group has graciously offer to host us! Google  International Female Ride Day and see if there is a ride in your area. I'll keep looking for a specific link.

Need to have a female passenger day!  My wife can't pilot her own ride (medical reasons), but loves to ride on the back!

Definitely just Ratman's house!! We have 17C/64F here this morning. Snow is gone but mud is knee high from the melt. If it stays this warm when the rain stops it will be time for the first ride of the year.  ;D ;D ;D

My daughter got out on the warm day we had last week while I was down with the flu.

back on topic now  PC if you and the missus show up I think it would be fine, but now imagine Chilli showing up on his H-D with GB on the pillion seat, they might get a frown or two.....
