Sinopsis

Before Louise Scherbyn founded the Women?s International Motorcycle Association, she was simply a working girl who loved motorcycling--at a time when women weren?t allowed to wear pants, roads weren?t hard-topped, and handlebars could come apart while riding. The hardest part? Auxiliaries she looked to for support each proved to be the wrong fit--some uncomfortably, disastrously so. All Louise wanted was for women riders to have a proper space of their own. For that she would ultimately have to forge a new path. This book tells the fascinating story of Scherbyn?s journey in forming the first stand-alone women-only motorcycle association. Chapters cover 225,000 miles and two decades? worth of community-building, hostilities, physical and professional attacks, recovery, sisterhood and more. Scherbyn paved the way for women motorcyclists across the world while facing a storm of threats and uncertainties, driving ahead with newfound friends and her singular, unifying vision for women who ride.
