The Star Cities are our Start Cities:
Join the Nationwide Celebration in one of these Cities
We’re #ByWomenForWomen and nothing makes us happier than crafting awesome experiences to bring women and female motorcyclists together. Whether you want to ride coast to coast with us or just join for a day, there are multiple ways to join our celebration of our heroines of our past, the sisterhood of the motorcycling community,
and the freedom of the open road.
Below are all of the ways we want to help you claim your “me” helmet time, make your new best friends, and join in the celebration with other lady motorcycle riders across the USA. So join us coast to coast, for a couple of weeks, one week, a weekend or a day — whatever fits your schedule. Short on time? See us off on the West Coast and then fly in and rent a bike in order to attend our three-day Grand Finale Extravaganza Celebration. Whichever amount of time you choose to ride with us we’ll be honored to share the road with you and are so looking forward to it. (PS_men are welcome, too … at the invitation of a woman.)
THREE-WEEK CROSS-COUNTRY EXPERIENCES
Coast to Coast, baby! This is the ultimate adventure on the SCMR2020 event. Choose from one of three West Coast start locations –Los Angeles, San Francisco or Portland — and ride all the way across our great nation visiting historic sites, riding cool roads, and seeing the best of what America has to offer along that specific route. We’ll be riding secondary roads and avoiding highways as much as possible. Most days will be ~250 miles and there will be approximately one rest day per week. It’s the perfect balance of seeing it all, getting there, and having the epic adventure of a lifetime…
Los Angeles to Washington, D.C. – The “Southern Tier” Route
[ 24 days, July 31 – August 23, 2020 ]
This ride travels along the southern tier of the USA. We leave Los Angeles in our rear-view mirrors and head for the mountains, sticking to higher elevations as best we can to avoid the heat. We’ll visit some funky mountain towns and ride some terrific roads –including a part of New Mexico’s Turquoise Trail — as we head towards Dallas, where we have another big roundup of women who will start with us there and ride to D.C. From Dallas, we head out through history-rich Oklahoma and its spectacular grasslands and on to Atlanta, another of our start cities where we’ll pick up even more lady riders. Things get exciting after Atlanta because then we’re headed up to Knoxville where all three of the cross-country routes converge and we meet up with our sister riders journeying in to meet us from their own epic cross-country journeys. This is where the serious party starts!!! From Knoxville, we all ride together to Washington, D.C. — in small pods, not in a giant group! — for our three-day Grand Finale Extravaganza Celebration.
