Women's Riding Essentials Program Starts National Tour
Taught by accomplished women riders

More women are riding motorcycles than ever before and many have questions or need advice they might not want to ask of "the guys." A new program called Women's Riding Essentials is being taught by accomplished riders Jody Perewitz and Nicole Hoffman Roesch who share their extensive experience and knowledge with other women riders. The series starts in June with several stops throughout the country.


Jody Perewitz, the daughter of custom motorcycle builder Dave Perewitz, has been around motorcycles all her life. Jody took to the family business right away and has had a hand in building numerous motorcycles, most notably her own 1963 Harley-Davidson Panhead. She's ridden small 50cc bikes to motorcycles with a suicide shift and everything in between.

Nicole Hoffman Roesch is a member of Team Rightsforbikers.com and competes in the SunTrust MOTO-ST series, a national road racing endurance series. Nicolehas raced for the past seven years winning the National CCS Ultra Lightweight Superbike Championship in 2004. She was part of the 2006 winning team in the Inaugural 8 Hours at Daytona and has placed second in the ASRA Team Challenge. Nicole has a great amount of knowledge about safety, handling and resources available to women riders.

The series of events is sponsored by Kryptonite, innovator of the bicycle U-lock. The first three dates and locations for the Women's Riding Essentials program are at the following Kryptonite partner locations:

Kryptonite Creates Riding Essentials Class for Women

Kryptonite is launching a women's only riding essentials class taught by Team Kryptonite members Jody Perewitz and Nicole Hoffman. The two women will visit select shops sharing their extensive experience and knowledge with women riders who may be just starting out. Both women have years of experience riding and racing or building motorcycles. The series of classes will kick off in June at Perewitz Cycle Fabrications in Bridgewater, Massachusetts.

“Kryptonite knows from both published reports and our own experiences on the road, that more women are riding motorcycles than ever before,” said Karen Rizzo, Director of Marketing. “We also understand that these women may be new to riding and have questions or need some advice that they might not want to ask of the guys. We have a solution for that with our accomplished women riders, Jody and Nicole, who will share their expertise, tips and general information with these women.”
Both Jody and Nicole will lead the 1-2 hour class. They will talk about their backgrounds and educate the attendees about safety, simple maintenance, riding gear, resources available and security tips. The participants will be treated to snacks, raffle prizes and receive a certificate at the completion of the event.


“This isn’t about just creating a pink product and hoping women buy it,” continued Rizzo. “We are offering women the chance to walk into a dealer for the first time and really learn about riding from women with invaluable experience.”

Jody joins Team Kryptonite after her father, legendary custom motorcycle builder Dave Perewitz joined the team two years to in an exclusive representation deal. “After working with the Perewitz family for several years, Kryptonite is making our relationship with Jody official by adding her to our growing Team Kryptonite,” Rizzo said. “Our partnership with Jody will help us bring the message of security to an ever expanding audience that we may not have been successful at targeting before – the woman motorcycle rider. We all look forward to having a long relationship with Jody.”

Jody took to the family business like a fish to water and has had a hand in building numerous motorcycles, most notably her own 1963 Harley Davidson Panhead. Since she started riding she’s ridden everything from the small 50cc bikes to motorcycles with a suicide shift and everything in between.

Nicole is a member of Team Rightsforbikers.com and competes in the SunTrust MOTO-ST series, a national road racing endurance series. Hoffman, who has raced for the past seven years, won the National CCS Ultra Lightweight Superbike Championship in 2004. She was part of the 2006 winning team in the Inaugural 8 Hours at Daytona and has placed second in the ASRA Team Challenge. Nicole has a great amount of knowledge about safety, handling and resources available to women riders.

J'Witz

This is kind of tough writing about me… I am, as you can assume, Dave’s daughter, Jody. I have been involved in the business for my whole life, well as soon as I was old enough to work. I have had other jobs as well. Probably one of my most favorite jobs was Dunkin Donuts. I had more fun at that job and make good $$ too! I really worked those customers for tips!

Kory, myself, and Aunt BB in Sturgis

Anyway I of course ride motorcycles. I have a couple of bikes myself. My first bike was a Buell M2. I still have one now, but I upgraded and got a Buell XB12 Firebolt. I love that bike! It is fun to ride, looks cool, and is American made.

My 63 Panhead

Recently we painted it, lowered it, changed the exhaust, and made a few other adjustments. I can’t be a Perewitz without a custom bike! It came out really cool. You’ll have to come by and take a look.

Wakeboarding at the cape

I have fun riding 50’s with Kory and the guys too. Although I am not as fast as them, it’s still a good time. When I’m not on bikes I love to go to the water. If it’s the fresh water, we are out in our boat on our lake down the Cape (Cape Cod to those non New Englanders). We usually go wakeboard and occasionally tube. I was just starting to get some height on my wakeboard and the cold weather came! Nuts. Have wait till next summer.

When I go to the ocean I like to surf! I haven’t been as many times as I would like to but I still got to go a few times. It is so much fun to ride the waves. My neighbor Tom, his son Luke, and I go and catch the waves in Eastham.

Another fun thing to do at the ocean is claming! You can get different clams for about 8 months! There are quahogs in the summer, then littlenecks, and then oysters. My mom, my friend Sandy and I went oystering this past weekend. Don’t ask me what we got because it wasn’t much but it was fun. The dogs come with us and run on the beach while we clam. I think they got the biggest catch of the day! A shark!!!!!

The littlest members of the crew, Louie & Cheech

Louie and Cheech are actually twins although they look nothing alike. Wouldn’t that be twins if they were born at the same time? Ok so all dogs from the same litter are twins or triplets, etc. Anyway, Louie and Cheech are Kory and my pride and joy!

Snoozin on the couch

Louie is the littlest. He is skinny, tall and timid. He is our mini pitbull, well that’s what he thinks he is, shhhh, he doesn’t know he is a Chihuahua! He is all brindle with one white sock, he lost the other ones in the laundry. Louie and Zipp are best friends. They run around here together and play all day.

On the Long Island Ferry

Cheech is the opposite of Louie! He is all white with 2 brindle spots. He is definitely a chubba! He will eat anything. Cheech just follows me around all day. I go out and so does Cheech, I take the trash out, so does Cheech! He is more social with people than Louie. Louie will just hide when someone comes in.

Cheech and Kory

Like Zipp, Louie and Cheech’s best friend would have to be Joe Pro and maybe Billy Twiss. They just love those guys, I am sure it could have to do with the many treats they give them but they love them anyway.

Zipp, Louie & Cheech

Louie and Cheech love to run in the field next to the shop. They go out there about 3 times a day and just run! They go so fast. Ususally it is Cheech chasing Louie but Louie had an accident out there the other day. We were walking out there and Louie must have stepped on something and cut is foot. He walked back to the shop with a bleeding foot. We stopped the bleeding and cleaned it up. He has been fine until this morning he was playing with Zipp and opened it up. I had to bandage it up. Poor little guy!


Cheech and Louie are awesome little dogs and companions. They have traveled all over the country with us to shows. Most of the time people don’t even know they are there. They are the cutest little rascals!
