Hopefully, this will work.  Just saw this at FOX News online.  Ladies starting biker club...  In Saudi Arabia!

What I really noticed was the pure look of enthusiasm on their faces!

I think it's great!!!    I don't know a lot about Muslim countries but since women only recently got the right to drive I'm surprised at how fast they found happiness on 2 wheels.    Wonder how they got around the burka laws to wear tight fitting jeans.    I wish them safe ridding.   Wonder if when street racing their Harley husbands if they are allowed to win....ha

Good for them!  cooldude

I remember standing on the streets of Riyadh in 1991 and seeing the envy in the eyes of Saudi women watching American women driving Deuce and a halfs.

Not only were Saudi women not allowed to drive they weren't even allowed to ride in the front seat.

Little funny riding HOGS. 

I guess riding isn't eating. 

I wish them all well. 

I'd hate riding in a burka.

A friend of mine frequently does business in Saudi Arabia.

A few years ago he came back with pics of Saudi Women dressed similarly.

It seems that they have private swim clubs where they do wear bikinis.
