Missoula Hellgate Roller Girls

I attended a meeting last night about roller derby, so far it looks like it will be a lot of fun! If I learned how to ride a motorcycle, roller-skates should be easy right?

Women Riders Month!

Since May is considered Women Riders Month, I'd thought I'd share what Harley's promotion.
Riding a motorcycle is no longer just a guy's sport, and May is the best time to take advantage of not only special offers, but it's a great way to meet other women riders and feel confident that you too can ride your own bike. Take a look at your local MSF courses available, or if your local Harley dealer is offering training classes take one! Yes, you can have a buddy teach you how to ride, it's just like learning how to drive, since safety comes first and many states require a motorcycle endorsement, do yourself a favor, be safe, take the classes and stay safe!
