Rider Testimonials
Before I left for the Convention I was approached to buy a company that I had worked with off an on over the years! Wasn’t sure what to do! But I was so inspired by the women that I met that I just said to myself "Why not me?" and I bought it!! So now I am crazy busy getting myself organized and adjusting!!

Needless to say, the event was extraordinary and I had a wonderful time! I met so many interesting people and made friends that I hope to keep for my lifetime.
The event was wonderful for a first effort. I have attended all of the AMA's Women & Motorcycling Conferences in the US and it took time to build. Your setting and the food were fantastic! I only regret that my need for a new front tire kept me away from the seminars I had planned to attend.
Thank you for a wonderful event! Well worth the ride from Boston.
I enjoyed the program and the opportunity to engage in discussion with the speakers, since it was an intimate group. The opportunity to share stories, tips and inspiration for adventures was a key highlight. The opportunity to meet and socialize with like minded women was a key reason to attend this event.
Great sessions but could not fit all of them in. Need time at end for Q&A's. Loved meeting the speakers, Stephanie and others.
Due to the number of overlapped topics I was able to get to many excellent seminars. I wish I could have seen more of them. I've attended these conferences before so I know how they work. Some of the first timers never made it over to the second location and would really have benefitted from the skills training as well as talking to the reps, sitting/demoing some bikes. Might work better if it is closer to the seminars, versus a second location.
Enjoyed the program and wouldn't hesitate recommending it to other riders. The quality of the food at the supper on the beach was great and the closing ceremony dinner was tastefully done.
The scheduling never felt rushed, and the seminars covered a nice combination of adventure, tech, inspiration, how-to, self-awareness and networking. One thing to add next time might be an Accident Scene Management class.
The only fault was in the cost of the room. It was nice and clean and the service was very good but I have stayed in a lot nicer rooms for the money.
I thought the speed networking was excellent and maybe if we had done it on Thursday, it would have been a nice ice breaker for the weekend. The only change I can think of would be to somehow have all of the activities on one campus.
Top notch organization, facility and OEM involvement. I am sure the word will spread by next year.
Great information about equipment and bike systems-increase confidence in bike. Networking wonderful-discussion and friendship. Tried out bikes and have bought since then. Learned to ask questions, and ask more!
I loved the demo rides, the guest speakers and the personal stories of the Stephanie, Morroco Desert Rally and Alisa, the woman who rode to s. america and the artist, Lesley
I was reminded of our individual and community 'power'.
I had a excellent skills and safety refresher that i intend to practice, practice, practice.
I learned that there are many very courageous women riders and the topics and conversations help me to understand that many women riders face the same issues and concerns about: bikes, passengers, skills, safety etc.
