From its origins in the USA in the 1950s, WIMA has grown into a worldwide association of women and motorcycles and embraces countries as far apart as Australia and New Zealand in the southern hemisphere to Sweden and Finland in the Arctic north, and from central Europe to Japan. See NATIONAL GROUPS for full list and links. If you are from another country that does not yet have a WIMA division, particularly if you are a member of an existing women's club, and are interested in becoming part of our worldwide network, please contact the International President: info@wimaworld.com
