Questions and comments from people seem to come with the territory when you’re a woman motorcyclist. Here are some of the most common (and some ridiculous) ones I’ve experienced:

• You have your own bike?
• Your rode your own? (I heard this one a lot when I did the 900+ miles from Boston to Myrtle Beach)
• Your man lets you ride? (could it be more insulting?)
• Isn’t that bike too big for you? Don’t you want something smaller?
• Can I ride bitch? (usually from some wise-ass guy)
• Are you a lesbian/dyke/femi-nazi? (um, no-and that’s not nice)
• You’re too good at parking that thing. If I didn’t just see you do it, I’d never have believed you parked it yourself. Now at first I found that comment a bit insulting, until…I witnessed many women at a bike rally having their husbands or boyfriends park their bikes FOR them in a tight spot! Puleeze, girls!
• Will you show me your tits? um, you…absolutely not.
• Good for you! -or- Go Girl!
• Damn, you’re HOTT! -or- That is the hottest thing I’ve ever seen. (these are favorites, of course! ha ha!)
  

Ladies, want to share some you have heard?
