Busy Schedule for Steel Horse Sisterhood Women’s Motorcycle Summit

I mentioned last week that the Steel Horse Sisterhood Women’s Motorcycle Summit is scheduled for June 11-14 in Loveland. Here are some additional details.

Full registration for this four-day event is $125, or if you are a supporter or male companion it is $100. Some events are for women only but there is also a guys only ride. My guess would be these things coincide–that would only make sense.

Three are also additional fees for several classes. For instance, the accident-scene management course is $75, and the Western Dual Sport Off-Road Riding Clinic will run you $25. There are poker runs, breakfasts, receptions, and all the usual things you expect at motorcycle rallies. A new rider course offered by Thunder Mountain Harley-Davidson is $249.

Here are a few of the items on the program and the presenters.

  • Reduce the Odds presented by Laurie Latham
  • Think like a Negotiator presented by Eldonna Lewis Fernandez
  • A Woman’s Intuition presented by Brenda Simmons
  • Alisa Clickenger – Life’s Journey & the Power of the Road
  • Finding Opportunity in Adversity with Jocelyn Hastie
  • Living Raw with Karen Fritz
  • Let’s Talk About Gear – Brittany Morrow + Various Presenters
  • Gentle Flow + Yoga Nidra Class presented by Marina Koyen
  • Self Care for Bikers with Marina Koyen
  • Weapons for Women presented by Laurie Latham
  • Women Pushing The Curve of Adventure featuring Patricia Jacques
  • Make Fat Cry Featuring Betty Rocker
  • The Face of PTSD – A Spirited Panel Discussion
  • Put On Your Big Girl Panties, Featuring Terri Collier of Thunder Roads OK/AR

Joan tells me she is expecting perhaps 1,000 people for the Saturday night shin-dig that will be the biggest of the social events. Overall conference attendance she expects to be approximately 300. At last year’s first-ever event the mistake was made to plan the conference for International Female Ride Day (May 5 this year). Apparently there was a bit too much competition on that particular weekend, so this year the event was planned for later. That plus better weather later in the season has hopes up for a good turn-out.

    I had looked at this event with some interest, however it’s a bit far of a trip from eastern PA out to CO.

    One thing is a bit curious, and as you seem to have an inside contact, perhaps you can fill me in on the rationale behind using KLR 650’s in the dirt riding section.

    Those are some big, heavy bikes for a beginner to try and haul around in the dirt and rocks. (I should know, I ride one). Would not the 250 Sherpas be a better fit if it’s a sponsor issue?

    Hi. I’m not totally certain what you are referring to is the Western Dual Sport off-road riding session, but if it is I think I can venture a guess as to the reason. Ron and Jacque (Coyo) who run WDSMA do motorcycle rentals and the bikes they’ll be using are the bikes they own for rental. Simple as that. That’s just my guess but it’s an educated guess. If that’s not what you’re talking about please tell me specifically what you are referring top. Thanks.
