Why? Cause women are hawt in leather!!!!!


Ok, seriously, I'd say just because it's not common

My opinion on skill between genders is primarily exposure and percentages. A small percent of girls start out young compared to males. A smaller percentage sticks with it as they get older and of that group, (male or female) it comes down to a natural born talent (my opinion). In any sport or physical activity, there are people that excel and it's easy for them where others with sometimes more years of experiance can't hang. That's a very small percentage of a small group of riders male and female. The few outstanding rides of the male gender come from a much larger pool than the female pool. It's just against the odds for a truely outstanding female rider to be one that stuck with it long enough to become well known I think. There's probably some bank teller, nurses, pre-school teachers etc. out there that could dust Danika Patrick
