On Monday, I crashed my Monster at about 50mph. I suffered road rash on my hip and lots of bruising- and Pandora has flesh wounds of her own. Here’s what exactly happened, and the lowdown on the gear that saved my life.
It seems so obvious to me, but let’s see what the study had to say.
“More and more women are, in fact, riding. A 2012 study by the Motorcycle Industry Council found that women accounted for 12% of U.S. motorcyclists — up from 10.5% in 2009.
The study, in which 1,013 riders and 1,016 non-riders were interviewed by the market research company Kelton Global, seems to bear that out. The results say female riders are happier in their careers, happier in their friendships, happier with their home lives, and twice as likely to be ‘extremely satisfied’ with their sex lives.”
So long story short- women who ride are happier, more confident, and more satisfied. I whole heartedly agree!
This ‘data’ goes back to some points in my article, “10 Reasons You Should Date A Motorcyclist”.
