With beautiful, blue skies as a backdrop, 106 amazing women reduced their “but” on Saturday, in Baldwin, WI, to set a world skydiving record, while greatly enhancing their mojo, AND helping abused women.   Here are some of their stories.

“My reason for jumping…

I am a personal care provider for a 17 year old who cannot walk, has the cognitive ability of a 3 year old, and an elderly couple in their 90’s. Working with them has given me the desire to live MY life to the fullest. My 91 year old man sits in his recliner day in and day out, healthy as can be, but not wanting to participate in life anymore.

Nothing jazzes us up like women doing what they damn well please.  When we discovered “Women On Wheels® we got all goose bumpy—this was a group of women we had to know more about.  Little did we know the impact this group was having on so many people, and at so many different levels of our society?

“Women On Wheels® is a national organization that was founded in 1982 for the express purpose of uniting women motorcyclists for recreation, education, mutual support and recognition, and to promote a positive image of motorcycling.  We welcome all women motorcycle enthusiasts whether 18 or 80.   We ride all brands, all sizes, and all styles of motorcycles.  We welcome riders, passengers, and future riders to join us.”-- says their home page.
