Are motorbikes only for boys? Well, if it’s a yes then why should boys have all the fun? If you still think that bikes were made for boys then we are sorry but you are way behind the times. Girls on the motorbikes are all rage these days.
Women on bikes look free and that’s what maybe society took time to understand. Well, is a means of transport any gender-biased, or is it the minds of people we should blame?
One in five motorcycle riders is a woman, according to a recent Motorcycle Industry Council poll. This discovery completely alters society’s assumptions and perspectives. Women can ride motorcycles and they are skilled at it.
In the twenty-first century, gender norms are eroding and could soon be outdated. No longer a prerequisite for learning a skill or pastime is gender or sexuality. Both a guy and a woman can ride bicycles. On a larger scale, there is still more work to be done. But the shift has already started.
Well, watch a female riding a bike with all her wrath if you ever want to witness power in action. Nothing is more powerful than a female, believe us.
TIPS FOR FEMALE BIKERS
Well, for all the queens out on their bikes, here are a few tips you should consider in order to befriend bikes harder.
- AVOID LOOSE CLOTHING
Pretty scarves may be adorable, but they will inevitably come undone and irritate you, which makes them unsafe because you won’t be paying attention to the road. Avoid wearing anything that can make you uncomfortable, such as skirts and satchels.
- HAIR
We know there are a ton of options when it comes to hairstyles, but when you are riding make sure your hair is well combed and doesn’t untie easily. Avoid doing anything that would make your helmet uneasy. Although a high ponytail is lovely, wearing a helmet might make the band irritate your head.
The same is true for grips, clips, and hair clips. Additionally, avoid pulling your hair back by securing it too tightly; this is very annoying. On the other hand, loose hair will make a mess when riding a motorcycle and is likely to fly into your face, which is annoying and frightening.
