Vicki Gray, motorcycle industry expert, founded International Female Ride Day 8 years ago and since its inception, each year, it picks up speed. The original intent was just to draw awareness to the amount of women riders on the road but in today’s modern world, most women are working or have family commitments and have not been able to take part in the celebration.
As a result, Vicki has changed the day from Friday to Saturday to allow as many ladies to participate as possible. This year, Saturday, May 3 will mark the day so mark your calendar ladies.

Dear,
Greetings from Pakistan
Subject of female riding motorbike is very very new in our country
It started just a year ago
Pakistan Girl Guide Association took the lead and now we have over 50 trained female riders
To celebrate this day for the first time in Pakistan, will some support be possible?
Regards
