Female Motorcyclists Set To Break World Record With Triumph Motorcycles

Moto Advisor, a Facebook group for UK motorcyclists, is attempting to beat the existing record for the world’s largest female biker meet.

Taking place on 24th July 2022, the world record attempt will be held at the Triumph Factory Visitor Experience in Hinckley, Leicestershire, the global headquarters of Triumph Motorcycles.

Nimi Patel, keen motorcyclist and co-founder of Moto Advisor, initially founded a group called South East Link Up, as the group quickly grew popular amongst the online female biking community, Nimi was curious to see how many female bikers could gather together on a larger scale.

In 2015, Nimi and fellow motorcyclist Sherrie Woolf achieved a world record for largest number of all-female riders at a single bike meet. The event took place at the iconic biker’s hang-out, The Ace Café, London, where 618 female riders gathered to break the record. In following years, record attempts have been made globally in Australia and the USA, however the current record still remains in the UK with 1,132 female riders who met at single bike meet in Shropshire in 2017.

The initiative aims to bring women together as a growing target for the motorcycle industry, with the goal of encouraging the development of a wider range of products suitable for female riders and to inspire others to live their passion.

Sherrie Woolf, Moto Advisor, said: “We are keen to show the motorcycle industry that the female market is financially worthwhile catering to. There are over 300,000 female motorcycle licence holders in the UK alone. We also want to encourage and support more women to enjoy riding and get involved in all aspects of biking; from road riding, track days, off-roading, rallies, stunting, touring and anything else that is possible on two-wheels. The social aspect and kinship of the biking community is special, whether male or female, turning up to an event alone, you are guaranteed to leave with lots of new friends.”

Annually in the UK there are 4,900 theory test passes and 3,100 module two test passes and the number of female motorcyclists is set to constantly increase. The average age of women passing their test has fallen, with the largest pass rate currently being within the 21 – 39 age brackets, which shows that a new generation of females are being introduced to the world of motorcycling (data shared by MCIA).

In addition to the impressive world record attempt, the Hinkley-based event will include live music, clothing and apparel stands, refreshments and a raffle; the proceeds of which will be donated to the local Air Ambulance Service and Blood Bikers.

Moto Advisor together with Triumph Motorcycles are looking forward to welcoming thousands of female riders to the Triumph Factory Visitor Experience to attempt a new world record.

New Triumph Daytona Exhibition Launches At The Triumph Factory Visitor Experience

From the original race bike that inspired and created the Triumph Daytona name, through to Triumph’s recent and most significant Supersport TT bikes, the Triumph Factory Visitor Experience unveils its largest exhibition to date at the home of Triumph, within its Hinckley Headquarters.

Visitors to the Factory Visitor Experience will now be able to follow the bloodline of Triumph’s legendary Daytona with a new exhibition which will be on display from now until mid-August. An impressive layout presents 14 iconic Daytona motorcycles that illustrate in chronological order the timeline of this incredible model range and features the most important race-winning models, spanning across a 50-year period.

The centre point for this display and on display for the first time since a full nut and bolt restoration, is Buddy Elmore’s legendary 1966 Daytona 200 winning bike, the original motorcycle which coined the ‘Triumph Daytona’ name.

  • This new exhibition delivers an engaging journey that showcases the evolution of one of Triumph’s most successful models to date, from the original Daytona racer that inspired the ‘Triumph Daytona’ name, to today’s TT and Supersport championship winning legends.
  • In its first public display since undergoing a total restoration, visitors can view a truly iconic, original race legend at Hinckley. The display of the actual 1966 Daytona 200 winning motorcycle celebrates Buddy Elmore’s legendary ride from 46th place to 1st on a Tiger 100, the ‘Triumph Daytona’ name was born from this indelible moment in racing history.
  • The exhibition includes 14 unmistakable machines, each with a fascinating story to tell, from Buddy Elmore’s 1966 historic Daytona 200 winner, to the first-ever Official Moto2™ Dorna Sports Licensed motorcycle, the Daytona Moto2™ 765.
  • A rare opportunity to see up close Peter Hickman’s 2019 Isle of Man TT SuperSport and Ulster GP three times race winning Triumph Daytona 675R, alongside multiple BSB championship, Daytona 200, and Isle of Man Supersport TT winning Triumph Daytona motorcycles.

Simon Thrussell, Head of Customer Experience, Triumph Motorcycles said: “We are very proud to be able to showcase our largest ever exhibition to date and what better model to feature than the Daytona! You can literally see the prolific progression of the Daytona racing name within this display, its evolution over the years and how it became and continues to be, one of the most successful Triumphs of all time – with an ever-growing fan base. We’d like to welcome fans of Triumph and motorcycling to come to the Factory Visitor Experience and see first-hand this fantastic new exhibit, which has been a passion project for the Factory Visitor Experience team to create from the first day we opened. There’s never been a better time to visit our Factory Visitor Experience.”
