In this episode of Talking Motorcycles powered by Crosley Brands we learn much about one of the oldest continuous riding clubs in America and it is 100% female riders. These ladies ride to every event on their own motorcycles and record many touring miles in doing so! They ride to their national Convention from the four corners of the USA!

Frances Lemen bought her first motorcycle in 1959 at 22 years old. It was a BMW airhead and she has put big miles on 4 of those! She still has a 1975 BMW R90/6 with 1973 Toaster Tank bodywork that has had three speedometers. The cool thing is she still owns it. Frances joins us LIVE to discuss her riding history, the historical importance, the present and the future of the Motor Maids and her involvement in it.

Lee Ann Stephenson calls us LIVE to give her account of how she became a motorcyclist, how she became involved in the Motor Maids and why she sees it as a vital link for women riders in America.

The female market is driving the motorcycle industry and has for about the last 8 to 9 years. As the fastest growing segment of the market, today's women are looking for a way to increase their miles safely and improve their skill sets as a rider plus find like minded individuals to enjoy touring with. Motor Maids is definitely a way of doing all that and more for certain women riders!
