Me: Joan, What does the summit mean to you?
Joan: The Summit is an electrifying event, the effect on everyone that experiences it is inspirational as we push each
other (presenters and attendees alike) to reach:
• The summit of one’s ambitions.
• The summit of one’s hopes.
• The summit of one’s capabilities.
• The summit of one’s intellectual powers.
• The highest point or peak, the apex of whatever is
your dream.
• And last but not least, to reach the Summit of
some of the most scenic peaks of Colorado.
Me: Why are women attracted to the Summit?
Joan: It is fun to meet new people that share similar interests
and experiences. We all ride motorcycles, enjoy beautiful
scenery and love to go
places we have never
gone before.
Me: How do you see the
summit changing and
what’s in it for the future?
Joan: The women have
spoken loudly about what
they love. The list includes
meeting other women (and
men) from all over the
world, practical life skills
training, and inspirational
messages. But most of all
they love to ride!

How’s that for an unforgettable, action-packed lineup?
Me: I like the fact that men are included. What’s the 411 on that?
Joan: There are two types of women riders; those who ride
as a co-rider behind their partners and those that have made
the decision to climb on the front and ride their own. Men
are a part of our lives whether in personal relationships, the
workplace, or a casual setting….. Guys are around and our
biggest supporters. This year we even had a guy’s only ride
that went into Wyoming and through northern Colorado while
the women were inside the event center having our own fun.
The rides where everyone rode together were awesome too.
So yes my friends, the Steelhorse Sisterhood Summit is many
things and it is evolving and getting better and better and it has
something for everyone that loves motorcycles or wants to learn.
