Becky Brown Our Founder, Becky Brown, has been riding since the 70's, and her story is similar to the stories of many women. "We would ride on the back with boyfriends or husbands, or some of us were tomboys and rode dirt bikes. But once we got the bug, it was a matter of knowing how to find a bike that fit us and learn the rules of the road".

In 1979, Becky placed an ad in her local newspaper. Soon after, eleven women took their first ride through the scenic byways of the Maumee River. Since those first women in Toledo chose our name, Women in the Wind has expanded to more than 1300 members and spanned the globe across the U.S., Canada, Great Britain, and Australia. The organization now sports over 90 chapters, and while sometimes the chapter locations and member faces change, Women in the Wind keeps its spirit to promote a positive image of women motorcyclists.
