Favorite Links
 

     Pre-revision readers of Wrench Wench will notice that the list has gotten much shorter. This is because a lot of the wonderful old sites which were started by independent women riders are now owned by large corporations and are simply links to oodles of tacky advertising. *Sigh* I miss them. But. . . . Life goes on.
     Of those that have hung in, it is so good to see how they have matured and grown!

Favorite Forums
 

    What do bikers and riders like to do when not riding? Talk about bikes and riding! Here is a selection of my favorite biker, motorcyclist, rider, or whatever you want to call them, forums. Each one has its own unique style.

AbOutcasts Motorcycle Forum - New forum by Xarius.

AliciaDan Motorcycle Links Page - Yep - just like it says! Lots of links to many things motorcycle. Chats, too.

BeginnerBikes.org - A community for all things motorcycle, is looking for AbOutcasts.

Brothers and Sisters in the Wind - A kinder, gentler biker forum. All makes of bikes are welcome. Wipe your feet and take off you hat when you come in.

*Harley-Davidson Forum - Yes, we talk about Harleys, but you STILL better wipe your feet and take off your hat when you come in. (psssssst - I ride a Suzuki!)

Hawai`i / Pacific Motorcycle Forum - Formerly the Hawai`i Motorcycle Forum, it has recently expanded. This friendly forum specializes in, just like it says, Hawai`i and the Pacific. Whether you are an islander, live on the Pacific Rim, or would like to visit some day, you'll want to visit this forum.

Hawg Ryder's All HD Tech Forum - OK, THIS Harley forum you DON'T have to wipe your feet and take off your hat. I'm not sure they even care if you HAVE feet. OR a hat. In fact, I think they are still meeting in the garage, so you might want to wear your old jeans in case they haven't cleaned up that last oil spill. (pssst! I STILL ride a Suzuki!)

Motorcycles Going Wild - Originally Metrics Going Wild, they've blown it wide open. Some nudity. Really! Grownups only.

Motorcycle Views - Walt Kern, Formerly of About Motorcycles, hosts this forum.

La Madame Biker Bar - YOU ask her if you need to wipe your feet. Bit more on the edge than some I frequent. But if you can take a joke and don't mind being the subject of a few, you'll do just fine. It's a BAR! Remember?

Motorcycle Tourer's Forum - They don't care what you ride, just that you ride it - SOMEwhere.

Still Cruisin' the Curves Motorcycle Forum - Carrie is back and still cruisin' the curves. General-interest motorbike forum with a lot of familiar faces you've seen about. Chat room.

Women Riders International - This long-time forum may soon join the Wrench Wench Family of Forums as a place for beginning women riders to meet more experienced ladies and discuss the issues unique to women riders.

Women Who Ride - A nice, supportive site for Lady Riders. Yep, another one where you should wipe your feet and take off your hat - unless it is a fashionable part of your ensemble.
