”Motorcycle Group Exclusively for Women Provides a Safe Space for Female Riders”
The local Facebook group is a part of ”Bike babes Sweden” and serves as a gathering place for women who currently have or are in the process of obtaining a motorcycle license.
One may wonder, aren’t there already ”regular” motorcycle groups that cater to all enthusiasts?
– While it is true that everyone has the right to participate in those groups, Therese Palo believes that there is also a need for a dedicated space for women. Sometimes, women may not feel comfortable expressing themselves fully or engaging in discussions in mixed-gender groups.
Therese Palo, the group administrator, emphasizes that this platform caters to the unique needs and concerns of female riders.
A Different Environment
According to Palo, many members have expressed a desire for a female-only environment, as it provides a different experience. When men are present, discussions can often become competitive and heated, leaving some women hesitant to participate. This is why an all-female group can be beneficial.
This motorcycle group has proven to be more than just a social platform. Therese Palo reveals that some members have actually found their driving instructors through this group, highlighting its practical value for aspiring female riders.
In the accompanying video, members share their thoughts on the importance of connecting with other female motorcyclists.
