We boot-scooted, we boogied, we hosted a worldwide reveal, we tore it up on e-bikes, we had makers workshops, we gave away a bunch of amazing gear and gizmos… you know… normal Women’s Moto Show goodness! Three whole days of awesome entertainment surrounded by a bunch of the coolest motorcycling women I know.
Ultimate Biker Build Off People’s Choice Winner Krystal Hess
Krystal Hess won the People’s Choice award in the J&P Cycles Ultimate Biker Build Off at the IMS Dallas show.
We’re not positive, but we think Krystal is the only female independent who has won this honor. This is the ‘Forty Creek Whisky’ bike’s third 1st Place Win since October of 2014. The first two were from The Harvest Classic in Luckenbach, TX. Again, the only female to win out of 250 bikes (all built by men). In the past, I featured Krystal’s custom Suzuki Savage named “Spinderella” which featured historical photos of women in motorcycling.
Ricochet Customs, Krysal’s business, offers powder and ceramic coating, amongst other services.
