I don't see why there should be a law to tell me I can't open up a women's only or men's only gym if it is my own private business. Or a women's only/men's only track days.
My gym is co-ed but has a women's only area. I use the main floor though as the better equipment is there, and they don't have any freeweights in the women's area.

Gee, you might understand afterall. What do you think barriers are? A global thing? Open your eyes. It is an individual thing. You onlt change it one person at a time.CNF2002 wrote: All I'm saying is, the only barriers that exist are the ones that you make for yourself.
This is my field. Don't talk to me as if you know unless you actually do.

Ehh, dang it. There you go with flowers..........
I'm coming from the 'if you were pushing the program standpoint'. I did a lot of work getting those damn programs down, and they are accurate.
I think femmoto is geared towards attracting new riders, as well as rewarding/encouranging experienced riders. All they are trying to do is gain interest and share they joy. Why that bring up sexism issues is news to me. I thought guys would be happy there are ways manf/big bames are promoting and encouraging more women to try out motorcycles - maybe I'm all wrong. Maybe its a stupid sexist conspiracy meant to keep men down and not let them accel or enjoy anything. Damn those programs that encourage female participation!............

I think we're on the same track but on different trains.
If you don't like flowers, how about cake!

so one of the women that i rode with went to femmoto.
she chose to test ride these bikes... Kawasaki 650R, BuellXB12 scg, Aprilia Tuono, Ducati S2R 1000 and the 999.
she said she only attented day 1.
im jealous she got to test a 999 on a track. even if it is the basic model, it's still a duc 999. its 10 bhp lower than my 750 but i wonder how 15 ft lbs more of torque feels.
