International Women Riders Congress and Festival August 11 - 15, 2010 - Deerhurst Resort, Huntsville Ontario Canada Seminar: Our Power Gin Shear and Sue Slate, founders of the Women's Motorcyclist Foundation, both have the same personal goal. It's one they hope all will embrace: to continually experience a never-ending series of adventures. For these two women, most of their adventures have been connected to their passion for life on two wheels. They firmly believe their own power has emerged, in great measure, through motorcycling. The simple fact is that motorcycling, by design, places all the responsibilities for one's skills, decisions, judgment, safety, and enjoyment squarely on the rider, herself. Come ready to see where they have been and get a sneak preview of where we all can go. Biography: Gin Shear and Sue Slate Sue and Gin founded WMF, Inc. as a charitable/educational foundation. Not only has it raised in excess of 2.3 million dollars for breast cancer research, WMF, Inc. is also a Red Cross course provider presenting CPR and First Aid Courses to Scout Troops, motorcycle clubs, and MSF coaches. Both Gin and Sue have taught for Learn2Ride in Rochester, NY since 1992. Furthermore, Sue works with Riders of Kawasaki for Kawasaki Motor Corp., U.S.A. at outdoor rallies and events. Each woman enjoys not only road riding, but also track days and dual sport riding. Two of WMF, Inc. signature programs, "On Track for a Cure" and "Adventure for the Cures", wed fundraising with rider education. These programs are designed to give to the greater good plus enhance skills and enlarge the number of opportunities for riders when it comes to life on two wheels. In 2000, Gin and Sue were named motorcycling pioneers by the American Motorcyclist Association’s Heritage Foundation. As such, WMF, Inc., along with Gin Shear and Sue Slate, are represented in the Heritage Foundation’s traveling display on “Women in Motorcycling”. This display has been featured around the U.S.at motorcycle events, trade shows, and national conferences. www.womensmotorcyclistfoundation.org Gin Shear, Executive Director Sue Slate, National Programs Chairs Women's Motorcyclist Foundation, Inc.
