In Pictures: The all-girl motorcycle crews of California
- Text by HUCK HQ
Every year the female motorcycling community in California gather for Babes Ride Out, an annual celebration where girls from across the state travel up to Joshua Tree national park and camp the night.
This year’s ride happened at the end of October and photographers Emily Winiker and Maddy Talias were there on behalf of Stance Socks to capture all the action. Here’s a taster of what ride-outs look like when girls are behind the throttle.
You can see more of Emily’s wanderlusty work on her website. Check out our story on skateboarders who love to motorcyle.
