Royal Enfield's women-only road racing program, Build.Train.Race, returns for its sixth consecutive year at MotoAmerica. Ten selected female riders will each build their own production Continental GT 650 into a race-spec machine and compete. The series runs across four rounds and eight races total, with six of the ten riders new to the program and four returning from last year. The finale takes place at Mid-Ohio, July 31-August 2.

Women riders finishing off a Continental GT 650 with their own hands and racing it all the way through — the very fact that this program has run for 6 years makes me genuinely happy. 4 of the 10 coming back is proof a place to keep going has been created too. Anyone can take on a challenge. I think this is a story that pushes you forward.

Building your own GT650 into a race spec sounds like it'd rack up quite a bit in parts.

'Build. Train. Race.', so build it, train, then race, is that literally what the name means?

There was a time when just seeing a woman race was rare, we're in a good era now.

6 out of 10 being newcomers is a healthy sign, the grassroots base is genuinely growing.

10 riders on Continental GT 650-based machines, 6 years running, nice to see it's become an established fixture.

Building your own race spec and then racing it, that's such a great program, I want to root for it.

With 6 newcomers modifying production-based bikes, I worry about mechanical trouble, but it's a great learning experience.
