Twelve women who ride their motorcycle with determination, talent, and femininity.
Natural Born Lady Rider – this is the theme of 2017 Metzler Calendar. Every page is a story of courage, passion, and challenge, from Vaune Phan (Blogger and Biker Enthusiast in Singapore) to Lea Rieck who traveled the world with her Triumph Tiger 800 XCA.
Metzeler is a Pirelli-owned brand, and although its annual Calendar is not so famous as the Italian one, it has a 12-years tradition in presenting different views on the motorcycling world.
