The Women's Sportbike Rally was established in 2006 by two sportbike junkies, Stephani McIntyre of Columbus, Ohio and Kiri Hunter of Cincinnati, Ohio. The two realized in the winter of 2005 (by communicating on the web) that there was something missing in the sportbike community and banned together to create the first ever event, August 25-27, at Fontana Village Resort in North Carolina just down the curvy road from the famed Deals Gap aka "The Dragon."

With very few events that concentrate on not only the woman sportbiker but also focus on riding, this event was created with those two main features by placing it amidst some of the most beautiful scenery and curvy roads in America. The Women’s Sportbike Rally simply brings together those women who are typically just one-of-the-guys to become one-of-the-girls for a weekend. 

Although Kiri has sinced moved on from sportbike riding and can currently be found filling her passion palet with aviation, the rally continues annually with Stephani at the helm along with fantastic volunteers and supporters who return annually to partake in the fun and laid-back weekend for women sportbike riders everywhere. With the growth of the event we instituted our support in 2007 of the Tiffany Weirbach "Sportbikegirl" Melanoma Foundation so attendees can feel great about having a good time knowing their support of the rally is going towards a good cause.

The rally openly welcomes ALL women sport riders, groups and guests regardless of age, ability or sportbike choice. With so much variety in this small yet bold community of women riders, you can guarantee that those who attend are as diverse and unique as the sportbikes they ride.
