  6. You're ready for adventures now

    5D AGO

    You're ready for adventures now

    I believe you're far more ready for motorcycle adventures than you think and that adventure riding often isn't what we imagine it to be. You'll come away with a lighter, more flexible definition of adventure and more confidence to say 'yes' to your own adventures. We explore What 'adventure riding' really means Why you don't need a big 'adventure bike' How confidence comes after you start Why age isn't a barrier to amazing adventures Why you don't need to be an 'expert' adventurer Your benefit You'll rethink what 'adventure riding' really means to you and how you're already doing it. You'll feel clearer and braver to explore unfamiliar roads and plan longer rides, without waiting to be more experienced or perfectly ready.

  7. Why riding is different for women and men

    FEB 1

    Why riding is different for women and men

    I'm sharing why riding motorcycles often is different for women than it is for men, and how those differences show up physically, socially and emotionally. You'll gain a clearer, more grounded understanding of your own riding experience and why it makes complete sense. We explore Why physical differences really do matter on a motorbike Why women connect and support each other differently How coming to riding later in life changes everything How being in a male-dominated sport can shape your experiences Your benefit You'll gain language and clarity for experiences you've probably already noticed but never quite articulated.  You'll better understand how your body, background and the culture of motorcycling shape the way you ride, so you can make choices that genuinely suit you.
