I am posting these pictures as a prelude to my interview with one of the only Cycle QueensBlack Female Motorcycle Club that’s left. The Cycle Queens were one of the first all black female riders in the country. They were out of the D.C., Maryland and Virginia area. These women were trailblazers that paved the way for women like myself to ride today. They not only handled racism from white riders but also from our black male riders too. I am excited to have found one of their members still alive to tell her story. Stay tuned folks!
Inland Harley-Davidson dealers are celebrating Women Riders Month with a Corset Poker Run to benefit the Breast Cancer Society. I also want to give a shout out to Absolute Corsets. So ladies if you don’t know where to go for a leather corset; here’s your place.
The run will start at 9:30 a.m. Saturday at Skip Fordyce Harley-Davidson, 7688 Indiana Ave., Riverside, CA and include stops at five locations before ending with a barbecue at Corona Harley-Davidsonat 1:30 p.m. Registration is $20 per bike, and women who wear corsets get $5 off. A corset costume contest and other prizes are planned.
