Take me to their website

In the spring of 2004, their Founder, Christine Bell, was a woman on a mission. Christine knew there were many women riding motorcycles in the valley and she wanted to connect with them. Christine's objective was to unite, meet, and ride with these women; create a venue for camaraderie and community service, and to promote a positive image of women motorcyclists in the valley.

After advertising at various motorcycle establishments, a dozen professional and entrepreneurial women gathered together in late May 2004 for the first unofficial meeting of the then un-named chapter of Women on Wheels. From there the group took off. On August 21, 2004, the Gypsy Riders received their Chapter Charter from Women on Wheels®. And, by the end of 2004, the group had tripled in membership. In 2006, the group terminated their affiliation with Women on Wheels® and formed the Gypsy Riders LLC and their affiliate, the Gypsy Riders Foundation.

For the past 2 years, the Gypsy Riders Foundation has held a Gypsy Riders Ball to raise money for AIBH and to support Valley women who are fighting breast cancer. They have donated a substantial amount of money for the cause and have brought about awareness and support in a very unique way across the Valley.

Thank you, Gypsy Riders...you are the greatest!
