I admit it — the first time I took a ride on a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle I was hooked. This handsome guy had a Dyna Low Rider and knew I had a passion for raising money to support the local animal shelter, the one my most loyal friend Henry once called home…until I came along.
So we participated in a poker run with some friends to raise money for the shelter and increase adoptions.
(Say hello to Henry)
It was a day that changed everything — not only for Henry’s buddies at the shelter, but for me as well. I became obsessed with riding, so much so, that the handsome guy ended up selling his Dyna and purchased another Harley: a 105th Anniversary Heritage Softail, so our ride would be more comfortable.
That bike saw a lot of miles (still does) and as time passed and my love of riding continued to increase, I decided to take bull by the handlebars and learn how to ride a motorcycle on my own.
I did, and began to fully enjoy all aspects of riding — on either end of the bike.
(My first bike, a Harley 1200 Low Sportster)
What I found lacking, was a more professional and high quality line of comfortable shirts I wanted to wear both on my bike, at the office, and out with friends. The shirts I typically saw were for men, with little regard (or many times, respect) for a female rider, or shirts for women that were too heavy on the sparkle.
I set out to change the landscape.
I did my homework and enlisted feedback from fellow female riders who have careers, are independent, work hard, and ride hard. Through the process I discovered that whether you’re a novice, or long ago mastered a motorcycle, one thing remains constant: the need for clothing that is as polished as your bike, with a sassy look and feel.
Meanwhile back at the ranch…my sweet Henry passed away and my heart was extremely heavy. Then Grace needed a loving home (look at those ears!) and became a member of the family.
Oh, and the handsome guy? He’s now my husband and partner- the one who truly encouraged me to take my dream and move it to action.
So together we hit the throttle on a business and named it in honor of all women who love to ride—Motorcycle Mavens™.
Our shirts are guaranteed to fit your mood and flatter your figure. More importantly, they’re the apparel choice for the sophisticated and empowered female rider.
We hope you enjoy the apparel line as much as we do. We look forward to hearing from you as we accomplish our mission of delivering shirts that are stylish, flattering, and fun to wear for any occasion.
I encourage you to become a maven and demonstrate your free spirit.
After all, the only way you can change the scenery is to take control of the handlebars.
Motorcycle Mavens ™ -look as good as you ride ™ .
