Here's a flashback to International Female Ride Day on Saturday May 2nd 2015, an occasion designed to celebrate, support and encourage women in motorcycling around the world.
At that time, BlueCircle's Angela Murray was working strictlyas a part of Ride Stop n Go, and decided to get an inaugural ride going here in Calgary. Typical of Ang, when she puts out the word in the motorcycle community, she gets a major response and despite single digit temperatures, high winds and the threat of rain or snow, 24 ladies from Calgary and another half dozen from Red Deer jumped on their bikes and set out on a 400 km trip through the province for our first ever IFRD event..
Thank you Ang for putting it all together and making the first Calgary IFRD a great day for everyone involved! Hopefully this re-post brings back good memories and adds to the fun we'll be having today on the 2018 ride!
