I’m so excited to announce the project that I’ve been working on for two years… a book all about badass motorcycling women! In the MotoLady’s Book of Women Who Ride you’ll meet 74 of the most influencial motorcyclists of the last century. Motorcycle heroes, trailblazers, and record-breakers like Jessi Combs, Shayna Texter, Laia Sanz, Gloria Tramontin-Struck, the Van Buren sisters, and more can be found inside the 184 pages of this hard cover book celebrating motorcycling women!
Ultimate Biker Build Off People’s Choice Winner Krystal Hess
Krystal Hess won the People’s Choice award in the J&P Cycles Ultimate Biker Build Off at the IMS Dallas show.
We’re not positive, but we think Krystal is the only female independent who has won this honor. This is the ‘Forty Creek Whisky’ bike’s third 1st Place Win since October of 2014. The first two were from The Harvest Classic in Luckenbach, TX. Again, the only female to win out of 250 bikes (all built by men). In the past, I featured Krystal’s custom Suzuki Savage named “Spinderella” which featured historical photos of women in motorcycling.
Ricochet Customs, Krysal’s business, offers powder and ceramic coating, amongst other services.
