12th International Female Ride Day to take place next month

FEMALE bikers worldwide will take to their motorcycles on Saturday May 5th for the 12th edition of International Female Ride Day (IFRD).

Celebrations will be hosted across the country by women's clubs, foundations and individuals, including in Bristol and Cirencester.

Created in 2007 by Vicki Gray, a Toronto-based road and race instructor, IFRD's purpose was to highlight and celebrate the tens of thousands of women who ride globally. The event takes place annually on the first Saturday of May each year. Other countries taking part in the 2018 event include Canada, the USA, Iceland, India, Australia, South Africa, Brazil, the Caribbean, Germany, the Netherlands, Czech Republic, Hungary, Russia, Japan, China, and Israel.
