'''Miss Moto Maroc''' is the first all-female [[motorcycle]] club in [[Morocco]], the Arab world and in Africa<ref name=":0"></ref><ref name=":1">Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>. The club was founded in [[Casablanca]] by Dalia Mosbah in 2011<ref name=":0" /><ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>. Mosbah claims that the other motorcycle clubs in Morocco were exclusively for men and decided that she wanted to create a club for women bikers<ref name=":1" />. Mosbah claims she started the club to breakdown "the Western image of Muslim women as restricted and oppressed, showing that Moroccan women were as free as their Western counterparts"<ref name=":2">Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>. The club hosts an international biker rally called March Moto Madness held in [[Marrakesh]] during the same month as the [[International Women's Day]]<ref name=":2" /><ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>. Marrakesh was chosen because of its unique history of women on [[Moped|mopeds]] and motorcycles since the 1960s<ref name=":2" /> and is the subject of [[Hassan Hajjaj|Hassan Hajjaj']]<nowiki/>s pop art depiction of women on bikes.
