TankGirls is a London based women's biker group
setup in 2002 by Roachie who was trying to find other women bikers
to ride with. Group membership is open to all women however,
the majority of members are not of the heterosexual persuasion.
Having said this we are not a gay
group. Tankgirls primary aim to is provide a space
for women bikers to meet others, go for rides, share biker-chick
information / passions and enjoy some non-bike related social
events. It is not a political group and has no political
affiliations. However, TankGirls may act as a voice for bikers when
agreed by members (e.g.. if they tried to extend the London
congestion charge to motorcycles you can bet we'd probably have
something to say!).
The foundation of the group
is respect, as without this well...it's just not fun is
If you act in a way that is not respectful of
other members we might ask you to leave.
We encourage all bikers to join, whether on sportsters,
tourers, commuters, cruisers, trail or scooters.
We currently meet once a month to
discuss future rides and any other business, and organise at least 2
rides per month. One longer ride for the adventurous, and one
easy-going, shorter ride for the more laid back amoung us.
