While holed up in one of Victoria’s winter lockdowns of 2021, I spoke to various women that contacted me about their love of motorcycles… one of the stories that stood out was from Linda, a lady in the Hunter Valley, NSW who has multiple bikes and has done, for as long as she has been riding.

I’m Caz from Western Australia, have just turned 60 and for the last few years I’ve been riding a 2013 Yamaha V-Star 650 cc lovingly called BERT13. He is named after my Uncle Bert and the day of my mum’s birth. I learnt to ride in my 20s on a Suzuki GN250 though I was a bit naughty as it …

Buy Your Own Applause as deafening as my Harley on full throttle. Score cards appeared… 8.9, 8.7, 9.2, 4.8… what? 4.8! Obviously a BMW rider’s score; they’re impossible to impress! The noise stopped and I realised it wasn’t applause. It was my bike. And I had a branch stuck in my helmet! My husband had a new Harley, the sound …
WARNING: Highly Addictive!! I remember arriving for my learner’s course, staring at the 125 cc Groms all lined up and feeling a stab of nerves deep in my gut at the thought of mounting such an unstable looking machine. I had never ridden a motorcycle before; I’d always been too reserved, not confident in my ability to control a bike, let alone …
