Motorcycle Travel for Women DVD

'Lois on the Loose' - the book - out now! Red Tape & White Knuckles - the book of my trans-African adventure - out 5th June 2008

April 2008 - Calling all lady motorcycle travellers!

Horizons Unlimited, the motorcycle travel experts, are producing a series of 'How To...' DVDs all about the wonderful world of adventure motorcycling. Each title will concentrate on a different subject, and I am delighted to be presenting and directing the DVD aimed at women riders.

It's going to be a fast, funny, informative and action-packed show and to make it even better, I'm looking for high-quality footage of motorcycle trips in all corners of the world. If you have some great film from your own bike adventure please read the following requirements and if you think what you have is suitable send me an email with a  description of the footage. Please use an appropriate title for the email so you don't get spammed.

  • The footage you send must be no longer than five minutes long, so please edit down your best clips.
  • It must contain footage of what is obviously a woman (or women) on motorcycle(s), but group shots with male riding companions are fine too!
  • Locations that are obviously exotic and far-flung are preferable (Africa, Asia, South America), but if you have footage filmed in the UK, Europe, Australia or North America that features dramatic scenery or just captures the 'essence' of being on the road, that would be very welcome.
  • Riding shots are great but it doesn't have to be confined to only action shots - breakdowns, crashes, punctures, mingling with the locals - these are all good, just as long as there's a bike visible somewhere.
  • The film must have been shot on a good quality camera and be of a standard that is suitable for broadcast, ie. no shaky camera work!
