DELIGHTFUL DIRT BIKES
•
Dirt Bikes was created on the basis of wanting to
deliver more to the consumers of dirt bikes.
We specifically cater to the female demographic between
the ages of 12-25. We thought that their wants and needs
were not taken into consideration by other companies
selling dirt bikes. We wanted to be that company that can
focus of all its marketing.
◦ Also we wanted to promote women’s empowerment in an
activity that is male dominated.

One
day while bicycling down the street Rahul
had an epiphany! He thought “Why don’t any
motorbike companies cater specifically to
young ladies who love dirt bikes?!” He came to
Katey and Emily and shared this great
epiphany. They agreed that the world needed a
dirt bike seller that had a target market that
comprised of young women.
A few years pass and they save their pennies
so they can open their company. Finally they
open shop in Denver at the 16th Street Mall on
August 24, 2009. Delightful Dirt Bikes was
born.
