Pickerington, OH - The American Motorcyclist Association is pleased to announce that its Fifth International Women & Motorcycling Conference will take place at the Keystone Resort & Conference Center in Keystone, Colorado, on August 19-22, 2009.
Located approximately 90 minutes west of Denver, Keystone’s state-of-the-art amenities and infrastructure, as well as its proximity to world-class motorcycling destinations within Colorado’s Rocky Mountain region, are expected to substantially increase the stature of what has become known internationally as the premier women’s motorcycling event. The selection of the Keystone site was the culmination of several months of research by the AMA and representatives of prominent women’s motorcycling organizations.
The 2009 event will be the fifth AMA International Women & Motorcycling Conference. Previous conferences took place in 1997, 2000, 2002 and 2006. The AMA looks to continue to build upon the success of past conferences with the Keystone event, which will be the first Women & Motorcycling Conference held west of the Mississippi River.
The 2006 conference took place at the Classic Center in Athens, Georgia, and hosted more than 1,100 attendees who enjoyed a wide range of activities including: seminars and panel discussions; demo rides from Harley-Davidson, BMW, Buell, Ducati, Honda, Kawasaki, Kymco, Ridley and Yamaha; a product vendor exposition; industry keynote speakers; motorcycle skills courses and workshops; guided rides; live entertainment; and catered meals.
IWMC 2009 event pricing, reservation applications and lodging information will be available shortly. For updated information, please visit www.womenandmotorcycling.com.
