The last one was piggy backed on the WOW conference (or did WOW piggy back on the AMA event) in Athens, GA.

Given how much planning and organizing must go into such a huge event, my guess is, since we haven't heard anything about it for 2008, it ain't happenin.'

I had a flyer for the '06 event in the fall of '05. Still early, I guess. I just sent an email to the AMA asking.

Hey! I got a response!!

"Pamela,


Good morning. There is no 2008 Women & Motorcycling Conference.

There will be one in 2009 though. Please check back on our website. As we have details, we will post them there. If there is anything else I can help you with, please let me know. Thank you and have a great day.

Thank You,

wow, that's great to hear!

The 2006 Conference was an incredible week and a real eye-opener for me. As one of very few serious woman riders I knew before I went, it was just incredible to meet so many others like me in Athens (a very hospitable and fun college town). I've crossed paths with a few of the attendees since then and we all agree it was a fantastic use of resources and time, both on our part and on AMA's. The seminars, the shows, the non-stop DEMO RIDES, the partying and the riding....

Plan on it, ladies, I know I will be!
