Stereotypical Response About Stereotyping Women Riding Sportsters

by Matt on November 15, 2007

I’d be willing to bet that most people who are reading this are, um, how shall we say…? bikers. As such, we typically like to see women (or men depending on your gender), on motorcycles.

Being as this is a relatively new blog, there hasn’t been much time to get reader’s to submit pictures of themselves on their bikes. So being the dedicated blogger I am, I asked my sister in law for some pictures of her (and her friend) on her Sporty.

They came in the mail a few days ago, and there was a note scribed on the back of the envelope that read something to the effect of me stereotyping her as riding a Sportster because she’s a woman, and reminded me that she does, in fact, ride a Fat Boy.

Touche. Perhaps she missed the post about Sportsters not being an entry level bike.

The pictures she sent me show her on a Sporty, so look for them in the next week or two.
