FireflyJoanne of GearChic (Real Curves. Real Women. Real Gear.) is passionate about gear. When I say passionate, I mean it — this woman is on a mission to get every woman motorcyclist geared up properly with helmet, pants, jackets, armor, boots, gloves. "The goal of my site is to become an informational resource for women
riders who are searching for gear that’s comfortable, fits well and
provides real protection while riding," she states on the first page of her site. She’s started a nice REVIEWS page–contributions are welcome. And her GETTING STARTED page is invaluable for beginners who need to wade through all those options. Joanne is an MSF instructor and also works in apparel at Scuderia West. Yep, she’s an expert!
