Sisterhood Club Empowers Saudi Women Through Motorcycle Riding

Sisterhood Club Empowers Saudi Women Through Motorcycle Riding

The Sisterhood Motorcycle Club challenges traditional gender norms by providing a supportive network and opportunities for women in Saudi Arabia.
In the heart of Riyadh, a vibrant community of young Saudi women is revving up change on the roads.

The Sisterhood Motorcycle Club, with its exclusively female membership, stands at the forefront of this transformative trend.

Founded in 2022 by Captain Saud Albarak and Roaa Talal Abualsaud, the club was conceived to create a safe and inclusive environment where Saudi women could freely explore their passion for motorcycles.

The mission to break societal barriers has struck a chord with the members who have long felt constrained by societal expectations.

For many within the Sisterhood, motorcycles are not merely a mode of transport; they symbolize independence and defiance against traditional limitations.

Joining this club offers these women an opportunity to step beyond their comfort zones, embracing a lifestyle that champions adventure and unity.

Abdulsaud, a dentist and an avid biker, shares her vision for the club: "We aim to create a space where women feel powerful and supported." For her, riding has been a means of liberation, and building this community was about making a statement — women are capable of boldness, unity, and resilience.

Membership in Sisterhood is inclusive, catering to women at all levels of motorcycle experience.

There is no prerequisite of owning a bike; the club welcomes all who wish to join and explore their interest in motorcycling without intimidation.

This openness fosters a sense of belonging among its members.

The club offers mentorship, safety training, and introductory experiences to ensure new riders embark on their journeys with confidence and knowledge.

The Sisterhood club sees its mission as not just about riding but also about fostering leadership, camaraderie, and community involvement among its members.

Sisterhood is more than a local club; it’s part of a broader movement reflecting the growing interest among Saudi women in activities that challenge traditional gender roles.

With over 40 rides organized and 260 active members from various cities across Saudi Arabia, the community continues to expand, with partnerships formed with riders from neighboring Gulf countries.

In addition to riding, Sisterhood engages in diverse events and interests aimed at strengthening bonds and personal growth.

These activities include participation in regional motorcycle events, safety workshops, community outreach rides, and lifestyle gatherings such as fashion shows and fitness classes.

The Sisterhood Motorcycle Club represents not just a group of women who share a passion for motorcycles but also embodies the spirit of unity and strength.

It offers a platform where Saudi women can pursue their dreams with unwavering support from each other.

As these women ride into their aspirations, they pave the way for future generations to do the same, embodying freedom, power, and sisterhood.
